Namath and I'm as Dingell your closing statement please I thank you for the opportunity to discuss these issues which I think are important to all the citizens of the 12th district and Americans across this country I worry right now but the fundamental pillars of our Constitution some of which we discussed tonight freedom of religion freedom of speech our democracy I think is something worth fighting for I believe that every American we should be creating a climate so that those we can every person can have a job that pays a decent living so that they can live in a safe neighborhood so that they can afford to put food on the table if they need to go to the doctor be able to go to the doctor be able to afford their medicine educate their children and have a safe and secure retirement I don't view Social Security as a entitlement or handout people are put into it and it's a promise that we have made to our seniors we need to make sure that we are securing that every person has right to be able to breathe clean air to drink safe water we have to work together so that we keep this country the wonderful country that it is I am proud to be an American I will keep fighting for it I think we have more shared values than we do differences and we cannot let our self-contented we have to work together for our country that I love I'm proud to be an American and I hope that people will consider I'll make sure your voices at the table if I am reelected in November thank you miss Dingell mr.

Wolowitz to you sir you know the work done by laboring people in this society proven up we produce enough well that every person this society could have a decent life but we don't have a society like this but people have most people don't have decent lives because almost all the wealth that we produce in society - a few people it's only controlled by the 1% the corporation's the banks by Wall Street the written class has the right to demand that the this wealth that we produced is used for social needs for our needs you know we have the right to demand that everyone could have a decent job with decent wages we have the right to demand everyone should have affordable health care that every child should have good education that we can rebuild infrastructure the money is there for this but the rich aren't going willing to give up control of this money not on their own volition it won't and it's not going to happen through elections it's gonna take a fight by the working class just as if working people in the 30s and if 1940 had to fight for labor rights just as black people in the nineteen sixties had to fight for similar rights it's gonna take fight of the working class in order to get build a society and head the society that we all deserve and I ask you as a candidate working-class party to vote for us because that is what we are speaking for and what we believe the direct and the working class in this country needs to go Thank You mr.

Walker which mr. Jones to you sir well jim hedrick said the power of love finally overcomes the love of power the world will know peace I believe a thriving economy helps those things I believe we need to keep that thriving economy going in the right direction but when I interact with community I do not see Democrats and Republicans I do not see labels and I do not see factions I see people I see Americans I see people in a community that struggle I see people that have obstacles and we need to be empowered I see seniors that are frightened I see veterans that are frustrated and I see the next generation disgusted and disappointed with the direction of things so in order to free us we no longer need to be enslaved by government handouts and in miscommunications political plays and programs that have left the next generation empty and so we need to have a vision we need somebody go to Washington who actually lives it who actually breathes it and I believe that I'm that person that should be there representing the voice of this community for a long time coming god bless thank you to the candidates for participating in tonight's forum to those who contributed questions and to CTN for making this program possible these forums will be rebroadcast on channel 19 a number of times between now and the election and we are and are available on demand for streaming on your computer or smartphone go to the league's website l WV and arbor org that's l WV and n AR b o r RG and look for the link to the programs please encourage your friends and others to watch the forum's also for additional balanced nonpartisan information on candidates and ballot issues go to vote for one one org that's Bo te for 1:100 RG and enter your address there you will find information on the candidates and ballot proposals that will appear on your ballot be sure to vote on November 6th and goodnight [Music] you [Music] you

it but the board will be getting a lot more detail and pass up those for the entrance we recommend we ask that every resident in town please attend this is a huge project he's kind of cost this town a lot of money and you should be as well informed as you can be in order to vote on it the Board of Selectmen then right now we're planning to take up the project at our November 5th meeting and a boo and if it's approved move the board finance their consideration and if possible approval that you are meeting we will have further from the Angels for you towards the end of the next week all back up data as to where we got from to city or not when I have an interesting problem when you finish the Monday night sometimes we're so Games data from the hilltop and putting together a lot of the supporting documentation it's quite a bit of it it's gonna be quality sensitive work detail as to what is involved in that data FEMA report I think we can have has changed a lot we've signed up for being reimbursed it we started to put data in but FEMA's new it's a brand new system assistance out of trouble not let anyone stay and we for inquiries into different parts to FEMA because we really wanted to get it in before storm damage twins to win right now still since we will receive right now basis what FEMA sold us two point eight million dollars as you know we spent just under 1.7 million we do have some more cleanup to do I stopped all standing on cleanup right now we still have to clean up to do two at Gursky mostly out the fields and woods we have country force that's been put in a new for the field for the main field they look really good they work really well and I've already got my six - thank you for putting walk light you know you go down to the bottom they put the button turns on a ten percent for an hour up to the midnight any day so if you want to walk on track this arc will get ten percent like getting that these agents so that's working out over twenty nine we finalized the plan with video feed the lower federal Road Suite C this is goes from Jay Ronon right you see the last wagon will for people who are it goes all the way down to five guys Colts he's going to include turn lanes new interceptions Road closes and it is a very comprehensive plan sidewalks bus polos everything yeah as you know you know this started three years ago a woman went to the Commissioner changer editor and asked for a left-hand turns into chick-fil-a that's turned into 20 million dollar project the same the state pays the entire cost of it and they've been really good they given us a lot a lot of suggestions instead of modifying us they wanted to work for Brooklyn as much as anyone get into town right so we're very happy with the same Sun that the project would probably start 2021 we both Sears but there's schedule time it would be really love that left hand earned their actually let the attorneys at chick-fil-a a little shop right and chick-fil-a there's going to be light at Beverly try because people live on Beverly and I just murdered especially on the weekends trying to get it out of there it is going to put old the old road why that is that most close where Jay Thomas and new rule will go right through Jane Rollins parking lot and hit the light we're all Conesus it'll be much safer even a to accommodate all the businesses there and that will have the same number of entrances it'll make that intersection a lot safer unfortunately it's gonna vary adversity in fact that gentleman business I understand he's going to take it over my head because able to have no parking minor finished then going down a little road test healthy ways and we're Filmation sauces on the bus rootkits perhaps that Rosie doesn't become a one great way road going south you will not be able to make left come before the middle i any work right go to the lake by the Congress and the left then just gonna make that intersection alot secret and also take out that light at the bottom of the hill that you wait the crossroad it's gonna be safer and probably otherwise it's gonna why the rural poor the sidewalks in website but we do recommend people come to that area you think got questions now the state has spoken diversity every single property owner will be affected and god they're buying on this and so that's a long day now road you gotta make sure the business is affected we've been able to convince em this is work for them we also are looking at we have a business in the Vale Road area armful they want to increase the capacity of our cement factory gate boat significantly and in order to do that they don't have enough water from wells so we're looking at possibly putting in a water lining up the elbow could we get a few hundred feet long and each of the property owners on Bell Road would be like you did with all the road be assessed but a value that were not it increases and eases their properties does everybody agrees on that and also opens up to the properties to many more types of businesses moving there and we've got water and sewer that's early days yet we want to keep our code and they're good this is glad to have them here but if they can't get that they're gonna have to go soon wells justified order to do the manufactory as you know we implemented quite suspect and that is going well now we're going through the difficult and arduous effort putting all the data from the storm if the prices have letting up all the departments all the people so the process works take their phone say here's where I think this is what I'm doing doing any and then that will allow speed the theme it also will give us real-time knowledge which was too close we're paralyzed it down there's an interactivity worker says hey hold them at the corner of 133 it automatically comes back and shows it on that so the little gate will show Rose clothes so people and then the rest sense here's where to close the school for these thing we're going to put together a plan for you that will support it and I think that's about it the federal right to 20 2020 when they hope they hope to start studying finished by that fall they do in one year I don't know it's spinning for a big project almost positive fun easier for society yeah yeah would you get a project number to date three years ago and that puts it into the air cooling system to be funded so they have the funding unless something really our ball is on the state budget they had fun but right now [Music] pages all right so we've got some preliminary numbers that balance I wanted to go through that the handout said have more details they're not perfect or some of the changes that I know that stuff to be made but if I waited until they were perfect you would never never get them that so if you look at slide two that is a summary of the revenue and the expenditures to this year that that the budget was balanced wanted to begin with if there was an additional appropriation of a few changes most of them are transfers from contingency one was an additional appropriation of $25,000 I'm trying to remember what that was but and then $2 seems to be around the air that so had everything hit the way it was intended you would have reduced the fund we were to reduce the fund balance for $25,000 as it turned out the revenues were higher than what we had anticipated and they were hired by $40,000 that is a very small difference considering the total that tax collections were look a little bit of tax collections going forward but under the next slice but a tax collections were we're very good they came in and almost 100% of the budget in total revenue remember last year you did that a budget and spraying the summer and the state didn't pass their budget until October so whether it was a moving target of whatever revenues would be there but I should say the tax collections have all been entire to the tax collectors a report that I think that we ended up with like an $8,000 variance these are on a modified accrual basis and hers on a cash basis but but we tie it out international revenues the state gives us a little sing of what they beat us and anti that out to their listing I made sure that I had everything that I'm expected it in the general fund charges for services and permanence and things I'm still working through those numbers I've got lists from the different systems to make sure that it looks like we've got things recorded appropriately because we want a going forward basis the operating transfers in that is what came in from closing the registers assessment the self-insured health insurance there was more money than that but a samel of it you would lacked at 370,000 your devoted to offset that the Board of Ed expenses with that so that's why it's it's lower than I anticipated the town operating expenses [Music] but the BN premium was just that the premium that November of 2017 there were bond and patient notes issued and that is just the prorated portion we got some of it and the WPC ASM because we share the the bonds the towns don't budget for a bond premium that just you don't know where it's going to where senator I mean just looking at the old financial statements that it looks like you put up the bottom premiums in the general fund as opposed to in the capital projects fund so that's why I think whatever there so doesn't have the potential to correct that it's always a premium you're not a discount and I mean in a school bond but there are times where we don't see oh there's there's a possibility of NFC and I myself grew that as far as the expenditures go that there were 64 million dollars budgeted and we spent 63 million six so we spend 1.1 million less and what we could have spent this is on a GAAP basis so for example the Board of Ed it shows here that they didn't spend two hundred and fourteen thousand of their budget there however that's a net figure however the final budget actual that figure will be lower because I'm trying to get it to tie out to find balance and the balance sheet but there's an encumbrances that I believe that they have about 75,000 a set of incumbrances and I think that the final number is going to be a hundred and forty thousand or so that they didn't spend and the conference's are things that are firm madness' the things you forwarded by age to the 30th and and just happen and we see that it's trying to match to the biota to you long enough to say oh you know I wanted it to do this but then we had the storm that hit and I'm instead of saying well we did in the Senate last year coming it kind of Macanudo the purpose of them in common citizens and we rarely tried to go through them so they are specific they're not like leftover buying at the purchase orders like that [Music] that so that the talented gray are not spending the operating expenses agenda was the freeze that was put into place [Music] debt service I have tied out to the actual bonds that that revaluation is kind of an interesting thing that for a gap but it's not really an expenditure because you're just trying to highlight that you want to put it aside so it shouldn't set up a zero here and I just have to be creative when I do the final budget actual to the show that this is what we're trying to do and then just happen to reconcile in the name at the bottom to go back to the gap basis that open on creation was me and then the transfer sort of capital a non-recurring that was the original appropriation plus there were two additional transfers whether the thing is one for each fire department totaled maybe thirty four thousand dollars so that's a little higher number than it was taking out a contingency and input up there so ultimately that 1.2 million $1 spent was not spent then we get down to the FEMA that the FEMA becomes an issue that how do we handle that and I think this is gonna be the easiest way to handle it it's kind of just off the bottom that there was a budget that was passed multiple the total of 1.7 million well then in the general fund and the general fund the question institute in 30th and so in Atlanta to treat this as a continuing and appropriation I think would it be the best way to handle it that I talked about well maybe we treat that as a transfer to a separate fund and an account for it there however how do we handle that receivable that the receivables and the separate funds and you've got 1.7 million coming out of the general funds and it had a hole for a year so this is kind of the plan on what I think would be the best way to handle it is just say let us handle it as a continuing an appropriation they did pick up a receivable that everything indicates that we will have reimbursement from from FEMA that so it's measurable we expect to get it in the current year so it would be available that sorry I picked up a receivable the expense that fimo we spent 1.7 million we will have spent after the all the work is done by now it's about 1.7 million we are expecting to get 2.8 million because of reimbursement and for volunteer time and reimbursement for equipment at time I don't think we can pick that up as a receivable the the extra that I'm just going through the the rules for picking up losses if it's remote if it's probable and those we think I have thanks that you know keen and that would appear to me again so what I'm proposing is we pick up a receivable just to neutralize the expenditures so when the cash is actually exceed you look interesting recorded pro rata is correct i I would unless it happens all before I would say I would have a hard time picking it up and justifying it to the to the auditors to keep it there that and I would say it's it would seem to me that it were were occurring again and then the Karma expenses that those are we're actually at 54,000 of expenses and they paid it as a half million so we're picking up a receivable for a FEMA to neutralize that for the kurma they have a prepayment that we're picking up is on earned revenue because we hadn't sent it they gave us money in advance at June 30th so all in all that in a senator column we are adding 1.2 million dollars to our fund balance ed that would be what would you consider our profit for the year that it would go to fund balance I go over to the next slide you have that in the handouts but you have all the details of both of these that there's a page that shows that the revenue or sizes and a portrait page that is that the revenues by line item and then you have a page that it looks like this that it doesn't have any colors on it that most of the expenditures by line item that and community centers are very ugly report so I drop them into Excel to me a little prettier and easier to read that what you're asking [Music] so nourish identify that educational interest that's under I try to make it so if it's a positive number it's a positive the very very negative numbers and it's bad that the police are under that they had some please officers that were out what I understand to what pleases your et under a front-page drug bust right yeah just going through the next page you pick up 30,000 all right the next page pick up 20,000 it's the last two pages that we have an employee benefits that are under by 350,000 and we have contingency that is honored by 376 out yeah [Music] the police to the partner why you looking at that doing we're gonna go to 176 I'll get that far over time we have an hour police we use over time we have police officers that go up every year assignment Afghanistan Kabul or wherever and my guess is we can look at my guess is that if we didn't have a saying go out because usually a positive cuz they run pretty lean on their you know stick we don't know how guys sitting around who could just fill it if somebody's out we've done else instead of sitting in my guest [Music] I think we're I think it could change this what happen when I look at the statements as an employer to background I always worry about tax collections because that if there was a very issue that's that that's the real driver in the revenue that and so I take a little bit of class right now we look at this graph that and that mattress will never leave anyone the brass doesn't start at zero that so I should point out that it doesn't start this arrow if it did it would be a really boring graph so it serves to nangi percent and and I think this is just an important measure to wash that how we are collecting how we're collecting during the year as well but we have a 99% collection rate that a navy blue that's a great year taxes compared to the current year levy and we budgeted for a 19% and we got 99 percent and the delinquent taxes are the light blue on top of that that just showing that that was about ninety nine point six percent that would mean I receivables went up because we didn't collect 100 percent of what we built that in a minute so for the past couple years we were we are down yeah so in Afghanistan ask questions okay so I can call it cash basis whether the band's tax collections are gonna liability session that so at the end of last year we ate 1.5 million that of 1771 million of ativan attack and this year we had I think five hundred and sixty thousand I the discrepancy I didn't ask for this what him the difference was how a June 30th however you send people out the bills earlier and they came earlier that is usually the issue that and my guess is the budget was passed a little later this years everyone waited for the state to decide what they were going to do anything so and it seems be lying but but so they're paying taxes that have not been in love you get it I love you the next day July 18 there I thought we were no you really had making an adjustment to take I thought it was things that ended in received it but she was accruing based on our collection rate yeah I think you're right we could amount of that so here's the here's what was happening is that when you see the reporter the tax collector that's all cash basis her report it'll be in the audit reports it's a cash basis that the budget is the modified accrual basis and what a modified accrual basis says that you can pick that up to the next 60 days of collection is for years that are already levy not the 60 days of current your taxes and you couldn't berating them backwards and so essentially and then you have to subtract off for the first 60 days and to put it into the last year so essentially what's happening is it's a cash basis but a slightly different fiscal year from stead of ten number first along its 31st and it would be that cash it's the ultimate result when you're done with the April's on each side that does make our collections a little bit better this year because there was a big tax out in August of this year that's not in these figures because cash basis but it's figures against the budget you'll see that back taxes were high in that light headedness we could make it simpler that we can't the extent like FEMA we're going to say hey as long as we collected in the next year taxes Gatsby is very specific that it is going to be 60 days or less so we could say you know what our our rule the way we're going to whip twice worth this is just garbage to the 60 days that's been abusing taxes I don't know that that would make it a whole lot easier to explain that would make it a whole lot easier to see look at the schedule of the report of the tax collector to find out to these schedules but [Music] it's not gonna make a material difference either way so maybe just they're the most advantageous scientists a presentation is all complying look at yeah if we go next year last you next so this is an important water tax collection in history that 99% is a pretty good Fairfield County that all goes by wealth so other there's parks is that the state is it's lower that just interested it means this is only and exciting when you try and figure out what number you used to your budget but I'm saying we should use 225,000 an adjusted ending receivables just looking at those that it doesn't tie out exactly to that 99 percent the collection in the front rank 926 good as there at all sort of assassin adjustments but we want to watch this to make sure that they're not it's not a sloping up that that were falling further and further behind and collection so we also wanted to watch it to see hey we're gonna be very good if we can get it bring it down from a hundred thousand six hundred thousand so balance sheet that this is the general fund balance sheet and I shouldn't look at any financial report here doing this for internal controls and monitoring showers out of a balance sheet whether the income statement and probably the most unusual thing on here if you're not used to government's is this do to do from other funds that is five point six million dollars but I can tell you it took 15 hours that we have about 20 different funds that and what will happen is bill will be paid out of the checking account that the regular checking accounts but it's going to be paid or something that was maybe for the library and so the reduce to the cash and the general fund and replace it with an asset that it says do in front of the library and then the library they have an expense and then due to the general fund one of the neat things now the tariffs that are tied out at June 30th is Eunice's can do that automatically that right now we're doing journal entries to make sure and that's why I didn't tie up and sometimes journal entry is forgotten you know let's use the program for every capability inside that we wanted we wanted I think of saying that so we went through that with Muniz today and just how to get it done and then the softest of that sort of we'll be putting that in so you can see each of them and we have them labeled fund a fund so we can just a little quickly and say yeah it does tie that each one of those nothing else is too exciting on the revenues and expenses that the town clerk has various accounts where a town clerk last saw a piece and to thousands of donkeys or the state that's what that liability is dog fees and if you pay for a sportsman's license we collect some an assignment at the state I haven't quite got those I have over 3,000 dollars not to make a big difference and then the fund balance the fund balance is six point seven million dollars that that should be primarily unassigned fund balance and I know a little of a reconciliation at the bottom that if you remember last year a 72 I financial statements there were five or six funds that were added together the trial balances so we're added together to make the general fund and that just that kind of irks me that because that's what I did back when Gatsby 254 worth of the prove that there were certain funds did it both I special rather than the funds that anymore in the Senate it's taken care of it and in combining hey that they scheduled that the financial statements to say oh yeah here's to the general fund and then here's the Economic Development Fund and all those other funds that did involve I it was just kind of a shocking well I don't know that there's anything that I'm allowing us to do that under the state statute to say you know we're going to take a portion of our expenses and column general fund that lots of times do it but but it doesn't seem appropriate that so the fund balance at the bottom that general fund is the figure that it was on page 72 and the column general fund trial balance the economic development and fund trial balance was closed in no activity in there anyway that that what that will mean is we can't spend money outside a budget through that trial balance the the revaluation trial balance where we're just kinda keeping track of the money for a rebound was closed in the restricted fund was money that came in on a set of another five hundred six thousand so we can keep track of things and the general fund trial balance about having a separate trial balances so that was closed in and you used some of the last year's income to balance to the board of events budget it this year have a quite figuring out that a creative way to show that on a budget actual because it's in fun manifested its pulled out separately that so the beginning fund balance was five point five million dollars the profit this year was 123 million we've got a negative for that accredits change what it changed how units was reported to them so that's when we get to the fund balance of six point seven million there were two trial balances also on a page seventy two that are not included in here that there's a library fund the library fund had four hundred and seventy thousand dollars of committed fund balance after talking to the library you're doing some research that that comes from what you call the library causing an endowment and their endowment at money lake even in Wells Fargo that well minister friends who said that you can't spend the principal town say it because anyone said we got the well from 1947 shameless but but we have the will and the gentleman Mr D Clark Bailey was his name Judy Clark Joyce said he was giving the town money for the library during the time money for the library and it started as about twenty thousand dollars that and I'm waiting for a volunteer from the library to make copies a seventeen financial pages so you can just look at it and see what's happening sure we're all in agreement that this is a library money that's built up at a four hundred and seven seventy eight thousand but it looks like it like this so because he said you can't spend them appearances of all it is last year was committed it's actually a level more secure as restricted and it shouldn't really be in general it should be a separate would have called a Permanent Fund where you can't spend that principle that and the principle keeps increasing every year that there's rules the state of Connecticut has sachets called up metha you pee and IFA that and those rules say they keep it at the same spending power so it's not twenty thousand that you can't spend it's whatever twenty thousand has become and usually what happens is that you have a spending policy that we're going to spend four percent per year five percent per year so those so be a calculation to say okay of that they're about half a million dollars what part is going to be considered not spendable and what part could we could it be used for whatever purposes the mr.

Clark mr. tourist it couldn't be any sense is there a policy there isn't policy but I think the directors to the make women and where I'm going to ask them to make one on whatever bedroom take another sense preparing me Oh up that I'm going to ask them to because if we're going to meet the population to figure out what was said about what it's not anyone but you four or five percent is normal for the type of funds I would love to see that money along with a way like scholarship go to the Community Foundation Community Foundation's are special IRS nonprofits and their purpose there's a hole in the dominance for nonprofits governments that as where we might be getting eight percent of money they might be a 16 percent on that money that seems to be a win-win that it keeps the money intact keeps it safe it gets more money that you can spend on whatever desire but we haven't gotten that far so that's why the library funds money is not included in here it wasn't part of your own science fund balance last year that but it was in a general fund and then the heart and hypertension money is not in here that's usually that would be accounted for kind of like the self insurance and I can tell when Lewis Shapiro set up to the trial down so that's what everything it was because the account number we don't want it in here because there's a liability there that we got from karma that we should just an estimate of the liability for the already incurred claims that we should be recording so well it was a positive last year we'll be making a prior period adjustment turned recorder that liable and it'll be probably close to zero that between the cash that's in there and the reliability of the flames so those two on the bottom reconciling items to last year's so correct that is someone were to go to the page that I'm thinking today I wanted to know what happened and I'll put it in the painting to see if it's us [Music] so I thought about tweaks to make that I don't think any of this just wanting to have a copy or less than I'm keeping that it's still playing out those town-clerk liabilities and revenues tell the others miscellaneous revenue the best I can allocate the fund balance and into appropriate categories that they I think most of it will be on assigned but if there may be some minor amounts of money that our town clerk collected a dollar for every page that schedule for me that you sent on how much is there that we can spend on appropriate purposes really we have to add the Board of Ed and encumbrances that there's the OCD one line item underground or utility described which category is negative I $9,900 that's because there's a $10,000 from every source really where the spending is I've got a finding that matched up actually parking lot yes but we have to get it at detail and make sure to be a pastor some of the way use tells people to record their payables and don't like this what happens every place and is just bhakti the checks that so the payables on the Board of Ed site I have to debit cash in credited payables for a five hundred fifteen thousand just because that's how the grounds is overextended but a lot of that is swore money that we've broken the swarm expenditures out separately for the specifically identified the list you get every every week or every two weeks and Excel but the salaries haven't been pulled out of the salary categories and input into that and today so some of those salaries grounds really out of mine because of the overtime from storm work strategy so when the entry was made in flying August debited expenses credited cash so cash looks like it's overextended and it's not look it's like a negative balance and it's not and it's because the credit should have defined the payables that the number-8 is that I'd like to show you the the gross amounts and the losses might like to know if for myself is so I'm through what are all the different things that are offset in the budget that I don't really like offset but let's say for example that the Board of Ed that there's five or six things that in the original budget are offsetting fifty six thousand from that restitution money fifty thousand from something else in the common expenses there are some two and they just like to disclose what they are that there's some reimbursement some kurma for insurance I'd like to have a policy that says anything over accidental murder dollars fine just offset it anything over X number of dollars we want going to come to the board how many we have this is alleged with the police say where they got a grant right for twenty thousand dollars and cents total expense of thirty thousand and they were officially adjusted and passed and we said is to show the grant sense like God sent him into three assets are just putting that into the trial balance taking it out of the pension in us the firefighters so we talked about last month we're dealing with the department said most of them are made it did make some changes and for example that I don't like the way it comes like it that I like mixing nonpareil and parallel items and we had like payroll to be pure that and so in my department we have actually the bills made her and the stamps all gonna get his payroll I think it's more appropriate to show that as time sort of professional services and so I made that judgment and I did it share that with it's firing ahead and perfect it but I did it some of that some of the other department heads so I want them to I want them to know most of the really tiny little things so there's a two places that was one big one the other big one was that it was it was budgeted last year for some actually stuff to the be go through debt service that I'm not exactly sure the history of it I don't like that so I moved it I have to do that I'm in and and so but a service again so to be pure so when we're making the comparison to the debt service future and other other places we have a pure number so and then we're gonna vacuum and after meeting with transfers and we just go to the poorest Lachman at first and then come to you with one of proposed transfer speech doing in accounts go ahead a good trick that they break that I talked to and all their meetings that for their finance that Dave have agreed to close actually as a this week I think they're going to close their fund for I think I call it they have weird names but one is pay to participate is the name of the fund but the pay to participate it's over but the fun is so called that you might go over to spawn 21 I'm not sure what names you pick but but it is well that's why through there now is building foodies the before if you are the minerals talents and you use to the building they're gonna charge you for stole fees that and they're going to put that into the budget into the very budget and it's just an offset so put under the revenue and as an expenditure sure what there there's a city statute actually the sense that that they can do that 10-2 22a and then there is a another one that they have a different name for it Chromebooks which is apparently I really I had some fee that the children pay for insurance that will also go through the general fund and they sent the general ledger we wanna take a look at what's in we being me and that our Finance Committee what's in a student activity that my activities that might not really be student activities when I make sure that a secure that what's in there [Music] so that's it's been a very good session of the the very first meeting I went into in August they talked about it but it seems like they had our previously talked about that and there may be a draft that's floating around someplace but but I had chance on that just that capital projects that that kevin has been all this week the senior Hammond just taking and we had all reconciled stars by the project and now he's just kind of getting and pasting all that from ourselves of the weird by year for the general ledger so we can give it to each of the departments to say here's how much we think you've spent we need that anyway for our bonding so that we can verify those numbers and then the non major funds there's just two I think that of all the other funds that I haven't gotten into capital non-recurring I've gotten into it enough - those are the small capital items that are paid with cash you might know it is called cash - capital or cash but I don't know the name but I'd gotten into it enough to see there's only two years of details that to go through and then there's a town fund the town grants fund that I'd like to know the details of the subcategories of what went in and what went out of that capital projects you asked about that and preparing for bonding that we have to finish the reading agency presentation today that we're working on the draft of the offering statement updating that the tax questionnaire and tying it all back to the financial reports that munis again let's make the program sing and do everything that it can do that we're have a draft of project codes for both capital projects and and these subcategories we want to know what grants go through there we can have project codes for grants we can do multi-year reporting on those so we are once we get that done which we're trying to keep up with the current work and just keep making improvements as we go from here and just applying them so that we'll be rolling that out we actually had training today in in munis as far as doing the budgeting together with the Board of Ed doing the budgeting and munis that some pretty cool things there where do we stand this year that we've got this that you've got a printout with the colors on it which is this year's expenditures that and again this is there's things that as I look throughout that we need to do for example I think it's ability beyond disability we usually pay them July first no bill came in so we didn't raid them we have to follow up on some of those those things that I met with each of the department heads asked where they shared the budget with them where they think they stand they're all in pretty good shape there's only two line items happened to both be on the front page that we're watching that one is the tax appeals that this year we've broken it out separately and we may just have Tim do a transfer from the regular legal to the tax appeals the second one again is my department that some of this bookkeeping will be we had some temps in there and we all said FEMA and some will have to be reclassed to the to the storm account but all in all that they felt that they were in good shape what's on the screen is just something that I'd like to give you every month and every quarter of is easy enough the forecast where do we think we'll stand at the end of the year so the first column is the original budget that the original budget balanced so unbalanced shouldn't change that there wasn't an amendment to the budget at 45 that added to the bottom line was 45 thousand for the metal light poles at your July meeting that so that would bring the the fund balance down by forty five thousand assuming everything would hit and then they the third column with the amount and the comments are just is there anything big out there that we think is going to fluctuate so let's say gosh the state of Connecticut decided to give us an extra an extra million dollars that I'd be something we'd want to put in there as as we think we're going to have a million dollars more revenue or something big happened that we have another storm we don't think it's going to be covered by FEMA it's five hundred thousand that would that would go in there that went and as get closer we can further refine that maybe special ed if the dozen they did talk last night there and that they watching that special ed that but if there was something that came up to say oh we think we're gonna be off we should put that in here so that is it's just a pretty the forecast I love this slide I think this is wonderful is there a way either on this slide or somewhere else to show the actual find balance and the projected fund balance versus a target or appropriate metrics the number in a vacuum to a lot of people with meaningless so if we can show either point people are on this schedule say this is what we would like to be about in the year or this is the percent of the budget and that it actually is versus what we want it to be shall we well hopefully this is what you want it to be because this ties out here what you approved at the budget I agree but I can do the percentage yes I'm talking we have yeah now we're looking at 10.4% as an ending fund balance before end of this for six they enacted for 2018 to the 1718 that's a vast improvement rate what we previously huh but you know this is a good idea it's a way if we're hitting the general fund balance it's good to know right if everything else remains static what are we doing to the general get our balance which we obviously never want to touch okay I any questions other questions or comments on that that you'd like to slide last month about the percentage and when we're going to get to but it looked exactly the same as last month the state numbers dungeness I didn't put it back in again one thing about the fund balance and we are saying it's going to hit 10 percent by the end here but I choose energy to sorry but I'm going forward with the capital projects perhaps there's a way to project what that fund balance will be when edit against you know what that could what those hits are going to be in the future okay that's gonna be important to see how that's gonna actually because we don't actually we actually hit our budget perfectly throughout the year both revenue and expenditures no change in a general fund balance if we're under budget on expenditures then that rolls into the general fund balance for things like contingency fund one is that we have known increases that are gonna take place which is gonna decrease what the general same yeah the budget goes from 63 million has 70 million that research becomes lower means it's moving yeah so we have to buy make sugar that I said okay yeah any attack so I think having that knowledge of we don't have to make a projection on what next year's budgets gonna write and that's ready for you to so the percent of the increasing budget yep I could get that [Music] so as with respect to the next week that what we've been preparing is a projection and projection so what we just looked at was a forecast a forecast is what we believe will most likely happen a projection is what we believe will most likely happen if that something something's there and the big if is if this new school gets approved and so what we're doing is a 10-year projection of what we think will most likely happen and what we think will most likely happen if it gets approved there's two differences the first one of the forecast of what would most likely happen we've got some repairs that need to be made to Center school and huckleberry that are included there and then the separate one is if we were to build a new school we can take out some of those things and but we have to put in that that so part of this projection is just taking and this is the same way we did projections that when the clients would hired me to do it further in public accounting is a spreadsheet here the different revenue sources does allocated by how they would very for example all those miscellaneous things that really don't add up to much of the budget at all probably aren't going to vary by much Board of the state of Connecticut is certainly never going up that but maybe it we we go down and and it's all interactive so I can just change the percentages the expenditures how they're going to vary payroll is very different than benefits that so we've reached out for example to the people that we've used for consultants on the health insurance and what would their projection because that's probably what goes up the fastest and the letter of they didn't open it but letter says they still person thinking single digit increases that and everything else will vary it by a different percentage that we've gone back we had the 10 year plan from lengthen the February of 2017 so the bigger users of that we've gone back and asked them to update it I think I've got the last one and today that so that would be police grounds Public Works and education and the education is their plan is coming directly from the architect of of what would need to be done and the timelines of when that would be done that so those are for the small capital projects we call small under a million that because I probably all be put into a band together abundance as a patient know together and we're just assuming we do it every three years we can we bond those that the large capital projects of over a million that are separate that and then the debt service on all of those different categories the grand list we were working with the historical growth plus any that might have specific identification of this is going to be bump bump other than the historical growth so that's how we're kind of working with the projection that and then we'll take it from there nobody really wants to see it that much detail except for you and you go home later that but in the presentation we're trying to show what the taxes would look like that on a typical home how they would change we can't just show them changing you know look at they're going up they're going up but under any circumstances there'd be a cost-of-living adjustment as well but you're never going to have them just flat that so we'll compare how they go up compared to the cost-of-living adjustment from the Congressional Budget Office I think it is trying to get them just nonpartisan numbers that and here's how it would increase or under if this one was done here's what it would increase just the way we're on a target now and a comparison to the neighbors because it looks like taxes on an average when we look at this DRG be the group from statewide it looks like the taxes right now are about a thousand dollars less than the average from the other some of the similar towns so all of these affairs all these assumptions urban and get you better them okay here's what our costs of interests is on bands bonds etc here's what the growth rate isn't grand list all of these things together you'll get all that detail but what we're going to give the residences I've got the average price of a house in Brooklyn is three hundred and forty thousand dollars here's the increase per year you will pay and if you've got a different price house without the calculator you can put in your assessed value it will tell you what the increase would be so that people can understand how it's gonna affect them directly boris larin important finance you need much more detail to make sure that those numbers are reasonable and fair right and represent a good calculation of where we're gonna end up obviously whenever you project out there are variables some of using conservative numbers on everything to get there and understand cause before but there are more things that people need to know to make this decision not just their own taxes but you're going to need to know what is what how this affects our total debt that and how this affects our debt service because those would be important that some people will just say to you but that's more important to the boards coming forward individuals residents want to know how much I wouldn't underestimate there are plenty I have what will actually show up on Tuesday they're there for a reason oh yeah they're gonna be a lot of just for the basics yeah but those are the types of things that you've got to look at to say you know how flexible does this leave us for if something else comes up that we did check and confirm with the attorney on the middle school and on the high school that because there's been talk at least and I saw in the presentations about stuff that needs to be done there and that it would not need to be done in the next 10 years that it's not unreasonable to to push that off further once if this is if this this school is done because I guess the middle school is open our capacity with the exception of taking the trailers out of the middle school because their plan is moving fifth back to the new school we want to take those trailers out so we'll have that expense when that's 60 70 $80,000 that that will be included also what Tecton told us we had the meeting answer no mate - from normal capital maintenance items on both whiskey near and the high school neither them meets major renovation as new or whatever for at least ten years that's what they told us so that's what our projections will shuffle since we're digging into it one question on that is will the projections show any expense for refurbishment or repurposing of center support no there will be no expense there we're gonna have to add something because we have to look at that as potentially another project right there it could be a lot of different things I wouldn't want to commit community center you know activities a lot of different things God even if we leave centre school as is least heated at 55 degrees and have there will be some ongoing expense and I agree we should put that in there again or not not then accounting of the project and then all that but for planning purposes on long trails gonna be expenses to refurbishing that which needs to be able I'm assuming you're having revenue assumptions as well you anticipate so revenue it's much easier in the government then than it is in a for-profit because in a for-profit you start with revenue and in a government you end with revenue and it would be a pretty cool exercise that's for this project but going forward to to when we talk about doing the budget to start with revenue and make the expenses fit like we do in a for-profit we're not running think of a normal increase in taxes cost of living and project that out concerns everyone bored with what happens next Tuesday next Tuesday of the 16 7-5 7-5 that's a place cool so just take the Larry Wilson we're gonna see that for the financial presentation at the same time as the public and then get back up all right all right because it the actual project has to go to the board selected first we will get the details as soon as we have all the underlying data we're gonna get that to you guys so you can look at it they'll probably be end of next week look at it so I wouldn't expect on water Probie questions are different laws we're probably gonna get a lot what we're hoping is that the presentation will be complete enough that most people have a pretty good feel and then they may go back and say oh what about this what about that you know we're not going to overload you have like four slides for the finance part it'll be a combination of all this underlying data that we're putting together just just okay here's where your costs are going to be here's how we compare all of those sorts of things and say anybody who saw applying please show up to or select network finance motion to learn it yeah you Jocelin no well secret super secret leader right yeah who's gonna have those residents and it's fine that question almost everything we do they're gonna cut the boys side and then they're gonna come to the board and let me probably know what those people but not the one that I didn't anticipate is fun bounce and I'll add that add that to it any questions thank you there's nothing else for our from the finance director but there what a committee have anything would update us on that was there as a general point not just know now that we have the 630 balance in pretty good shape talk to mark schedule okay no items have all business nor a new business does anyone have any other items if they'd like to bring before the board once twice okay that brings us to public comment are there any members of the public that would like to comment at this time name and address um you have a mother yes Betsy McIlvain 127 Long Meadow Hill I'm here as chairman of the library board excuse me I also have a cold I the library board certainly has has been dealing with the finance director over our endowment fund and we appreciate certainly the amount of effort put into finding the records of it although I have to tell you it was the State Library that finally came up with the will so he can't count out libraries we are we are at the point where we we need to look again at the endowment fund but we do actually have a library board policy dealing with what we will spend that money on now I grant you it could be more detailed and we're willing to look at the options suggested but that the the chief point of the policy at the moment is that the endowment fund will not be used for operating expenses for the library so and we have that's been the purpose ever since I've been on the board the the policy is not quite that old but we don't want to spend it on operating expenses we want to we've sort of looked at more recently and we will spend it on items that might might possibly be moved to a new library capital equipment some chairs so things that will have lasting value for the library regardless of where it is they'll be useful now a lot of new furniture was purchased with this money for the center of the live if you looked at it there but it's so it's it's an ongoing process and we'll keep looking at what what it is in and the the information that's turned up and make sure we're doing things correctly thank you thank you and I'll just add the spending product I cut the spending policy I'm talking about is just a percent not a purpose so is there a is there a percent in that policy that you recall we don't I don't think we would particularly want to say we'll spend X % or X dollars every year because we don't in indeed do that we don't look for things to spend we look for direction from the library director of and the board on we might want this because we do it out of the Adamic this year so I'm not sure because we really want I think the majority of it to be safe in fact to build another new library and that would have been our intent so we were not out to say we have to spend X amount of money every year a library so I that's that's our so just to clarify that when I talk about a spending policy that what I'm talking about is a percent that what you would be allowed to spend and then just keeping that separate so if you had a hundred thousand dollars and you were spending policy at four thousand maybe made six thousand in one year but if you could take four thousand put it aside and ask to the pocket of the money that you could have spend this year or some year and and the next year maybe it had a loss and it was only worth 90,000 you still have to take 4% and put it aside and the goal is that that you're not jumping up and down with the stock market you're just having a nice even keel so that you're putting 4% of side and that's the amount that it becomes to the pocket of the money that you can spend that make more sense one of the question comes up I found some work with an endowment is this fund actually in an endowment or are you set up legally under IRS regulations as an endowment and then I know there are IRS regulations for endowments that they have to spend certain amount of the endowment every year you just can't put on under the Gazeta endowment and let it grow 50 years [Music] okay but you know we didn't have questions on a very last budget the one before that I think it was very important that we at least further our understanding right now so you know what I had thank you for that I'm in a motion to adjourn [Music] girl she returned [Music]

and welcome into Pine Creek High School here in Colorado Springs is we get set for a five a Colorado Springs at Metro showdown its unbeaten rampart unbeaten in conference play taking on the Eagles Pine Creek welcoming everyone josh homme alongside Vince Greco and Vince as we look at the numbers in this matchup here tonight pretty evenly matched up at least on paper aside from the records absolutely you throw out the records where rampart is dominating in this one Josh but look at the statistical categories in three of the categories the Pine Creek Eagles are leading they're leading in blocks they're leading in kills and they're leading in digs so tonight playing at home maybe and a little bit of advantage for Pine Creek but boy is rampart powerful all over the court man the rampart Rams led by Nikki Blum in the head coach as you can see her team right now on top of the Metro standings two-and-oh right there with dougherty also unbeaten this is a big match for Pine Creek sitting at one on one especially playing at home and they're the keys to the game tonight for both of these teams starting with Nikki bloomin they have got to come out as you see the head coach for rampart can play a strong mental game passing an offensive consistency they have to get it from all aspects from the back from their outside hitters libero they all have to come to play and serve tough and I think what she means by that josh is don't serve to the same spot all the time be aggressive with those serves and Vince this is a deep team 14 players 10 of those 14 seniors so a lot of leadership on the flip side Mollie Stowers the head coach at Pine Creek she's got a ton of talent to work with establish the middle hitters early they have to try and avoid always looking for their captain number for tonight savanna not they do have to serve aggressively send it all over the court try and get some service aces early in this match and set the tone and then mix up their shots and unpredictability again I go back you have to use other players you always can't go back to the well that being savanna not tonight should be a great matchup tonight part trying to make it seven straight this season the opening serve when we come back on 20 TV you it first it on here at Pine Creek High School five a volleyball what a scene here in Colorado Springs Josh Howell Vince Greco and Vince a matchup tonight rampart they have been red-hot coming in winning six straight not only is this a talented team this is a veteran led team ten seniors on the roster for head coach Nikki bloomin and she says every one of them has contributed in different ways so we're gonna get a taste of that tonight hopefully our viewers at home on the road watching tonight will be able to hear us because this is a packed house not only is it a very important conference match Josh but these schools are only about four miles apart and there is no love loss between rampart and Pine Creek and you can hear them going on right now well the Eagles coming off a tough loss on Tuesday night when they fell in straight sets to Doherty the Spartans still unbeaten in the 5a Metro standing so ready to roll here on what should be an energized night high Creek High School ramparts in Pine Creek and these two teams very familiar with one another a good look there it the Eagles Mia Agner and the starting lineup tonight for Pine Creek you've got Horton Nelson ruff Agner Savannah dot Collins and Gabby Wilson and it's rampart who will open up this match with the first serve and it's Haley McCorkle the senior for rampart to start things out she'll jump but I'll clean serve and we are underway here in the opening set blocks straight up for the air by a rampart and pine creek takes the opening point maybe there's a little bit of nerves there the Rams do not set that ball very well at the net and the spike attempt just goes long so this is Chandler Nelson the senior for Pike Creek line drive played at the back row there by Wilkinson grace able to help it over rampart sets up defensively back set the kill is long and we are even at one that one will Savannah not we talked about her in the pregame show she is the go-to when it comes to kill she has a hundred and eighteen kills on the year that leads Pine Creek that one however just long Nikki blooming going to her bench here in the early going Paige patty checks in set frontside pounded down what a man out rampart plays it blocked up and Creek with the early lead great block at the net by the Eagles in perfect position to set that one back down and take a 2-1 lead so Mia ignore the junior for two straight here for Pine Creek middle serve and the pass up set nearside pound it out that's blocked out by Pine Creek and rampart is just even up this opening set take another look a nice set and there is page petty the outside hitter knocks it down and that's a big key for coach Bluma tonight she's got two more transfers back Riley Simpson and Paige petty penny from our Academy we already saw Josh making a difference and she said coach Bullman said hey this offense has looked a whole lot different the last two weeks with Petty and Simpson and the lineup so service ser advantage Pike Creek here up 3-2 I serve by faith Horton on the near side block down put party for the point products and our rough teaming up with Savannah Knox boy what a tandem here jumping in unison almost like synchronized volleyball as a time that jumped perfectly and in the early going Pine Creek very strong at the net and the Eagles a two point lead how about a service ace to the Eagles great serve we talked about the keys of the game be aggressive serving and as you can see Horton the library man she is setting it down hard on these serves worked for two straight a three-point lead bumped forward there by Wilkinson it's not interrupt Kabaddi for the block in the Eagles have their largest lead of this opening set it's not what we showed you a moment ago that's a different play it looks like the same results and it was but look at the deep serve it really does not allow it rampart to set up that offensive attack dug out with the left hand my crew ramparts paddy and they're gonna say no point Pine Creek so seven two and the Eagles taking advantage of this home court atmosphere and it's all starting with this serve it has some philosophy on it and it's really confusing rampart because she's going all over the court late straight up in the air by the Rams sent over the right hand by Simpson SEC farside throwing down and that's got dropped down miscommunication to the back row and you look up at the scoreboard suddenly the lead a half doesn't here for the Eagles and I didn't think Gabby Wilson was going to get to that ball looked like it was going wide and she really torqued that body got it around and found a soft spot on the floor Horton has have a hot hand continues to serve it up here for the Eagles set near side of Patty or what a dig by Horton rampart trying to find its rhythm back set thrown down and that's it air I think what you're going to see if we see the replay here ramparts not be able to set that ball right next to the net it's two or three feet away and now the timing of the big hitters for rampart to get that ball cleanly over the net work again serve has some bite to it and rampart hustling in a position Ana Paula here for Pike Creek set straight up in the middle blocked up and a little heavy on the cotton look like an overpass through the rhythm r4 rampart and Vince ten to timeout on the floor timeout called by head coach Nikki Blum and trying to settle down her team as Pine Creek has rattled off nine consecutive points here in this first side and right there on that point that was won by the Eagles it was just a little bit I think of adrenalin by Emily Ellis the middle blocker for rampart she had it set up on a tee she just kind of missed it didn't get it cleanly for that spike Povich you talked about at the pregame aside from the records the numbers pretty even in fact Pine Creek may have had a slight edge early on and clearly this is a talented team and they've come out of the gates here rolling opening up a tent eight-point lead here into this opening timeout coming into this match 14 total blocks and we've seen what three or four them already from Pine Creek they at 83 as opposed to rampart 69 so we should not be surprised at how well rampart plays defensively herd excuse me Pine Creek at the net faith Horton continues to serve and right now rampart no answers for number one Horton he took the whole song right now back set brought down with the mop and water play of the back row by unburned and then the other way from Wharton [Applause] rampart another opportunity roll over the right-hand Pike Creek scrambling and finally rampart able to stop the bleeding they've got three trailing by seven now here in the opening set boy best volley of the match both teams coming up with big digs deep in their own end and rampart winning that point as you said let's see if now the momentum may switch to the Rams it's how about the energy in the building tonight both these student sections delivering great rivalry neither student section have sat down quick set dig it out of there and it's size up front for the Rams Ellis combining with penny that it's ten for a little bit of intimidation here that ball was clearly going to go into the net but when you're looking at those two players that is intimidating there's a be Wolverton on the serve and service there and so the Eagles stretch the lead back to 7 and in for rampart comes Payton Wade service airs are a killer you and I do a little bit of olive all for the Air Force Academy how many times have we seen that just really demoralize a team back set tap table right and Horton takes it up with the left attack air and air is starting to pile up for Pine Creek his ramparts slowly climbing back here to this set 11:5 now not had a chance to get that one over the net trying to pick her spot maybe took a little too much time and knocked it right into the neck lead as fit as many as eight for Pike Creek they let it ten - in the early going pulled down right here and that is just an on the line port rampart take another look great view from our 20 TV crew that one called in but maybe had a little bit of deflection on it Josh now the ramps we'll take it here on a 4-1 run it'll jump it up from the back set far side block down Horton is there again with the left hand she has been everywhere in this opening set and that's wrong smart play by the Eagles to let that one go long Riley Simpson outside here just a sophomore had a shot at it just went long Riley Simpson a transfer from Palo Ridge one of two players work back into this offense here the last couple of weeks for head coach Nikki bloom in set near side and that is in you can see the effect that number 13 has on this rampart offense and watch the set perfectly placed for Simpson to make sure that one was in the quarter play 12 7 a score and rampart Emily Ellis to serve and another miscue for Pike Creek started to pile up here on this opening set Vince you look up and suddenly it's a four-point spread that's how key that timeout was by Nikki Bloom and stopping that momentum now the so it goes out you cannot make those service errors if you're either team serving has been such a big part of tonight's game for both of these teams that's the second on four service air for rampart trying to find some consistency both these teams Pine Creek now up five five set fire and that is Riley Simpson you can see why head coach Nikki Blum and was so excited to get her back in this lineup she's a very tall girl she times that one perfectly and there is some velocity behind those spikes makes it look effortless down by four and Simpson violation looks like she went over the top of the net that's what the referee will say on the stop on the tower so Pine Creek up by five in comes Chandler Nelson the senior and she will serve it up for Molly Stowers team C Eagles team one and one and Metro play line drive serve you know get it over the far side throw it out by Simpson Horton now sets it up trouble and will considered company able to recover set far side another attack air for Pike Creek and the Rams have hit double digits in the opening set that's Abby Wolverton and Hayley Johnson the Intimidators at the net not allowing I believe was Agner they're trying that spike so Riley Simpson on the serve and another service air for rampart and you could see head coach Nikki bloomin saying hey we've had five this game those add up in a five point spread right now no doubt about it and the point going to ramparts a substitution here for the Rams in comes Emily Ellis I think Pine Creek got out of order they're in their rotation and it was caught by the referee in front of our table explaining her ruling to Pine Creek said coach Molly Stowers now it's a game of momentum swings and shifts and advantage Pike Creek early on they let it ten - but rampart is slowly climbing back into this set in this match and here they are down by four and it's they've got to be feeling good with grace Wilkinson the junior back serving here in a four point margin and coach towers may have the point the referees checking with that rotation see if the substitutions were correct and I believe it's going to stand and still be rampart serve you could see the officials conferring at the table [Applause] in the meantime the rampart Rams cheering section has not sat down it's I don't know if it's a bigger battle Josh on the court or in the bleachers tonight now the the noise for a Thursday night has been tremendous in student sections then on their feet from the opening serve rampart as we mentioned six straight wins coming in and Pine Creek look at the bounce back after dropping and Presets to Daugherty earlier this week that's still waiting for plan to resume if you have not been out to Pine Creek High School in the Eagles gymnasium this year very well done new bleachers new floor very nice district 20 facility so it appears we're just about ready to have this sorted out well the head referee just blew her whistle I think she's tired of standing up there long delay you'd ever want to see these in any kind of contest whether it's a baseball game football game that momentum that both of these teams had you're cooling off a little bit you're trying to stay loose out there mentally you're trying to stay in the game and the officials don't want to make a mistake but they do need to pick this up a little bit I would think this is advantage Pine Creek because rampart has been on a bit of a roll here and we'll see how it shakes out as Wilkinson with the ball and whether to serve and here we go at a 1511 opening set here grace Wilkinson for rampart to try to cut it to three servings been such a big key serve top to handle for Pike Creek and how about a service ace after a long delay and we have talked about an all night deep serve serves to the left to the right as long as you get it in play your chances are pretty good here Wilkinson now for two straight tries the same side set far side Pine Creek and trouble no they're able to work it through out front that's Gabby Wilson a senior and that appeared to be a sure point for rampart but credit Wilson stuck with it you call the deflection she got it but it went off a bound out of bounds off of a rampart player late thus the point for the Eagles for it and serve and another service air Vince it's been a game an opening set of miscues for both these teams still trying to find their rhythm he'll try the opposite corner Horton is there good dig of the back row by rampart set their side down Wow that was big man you can see head coach Nikki Blum and could not believe it here we go on the 20 TV replay Wow that was close and I believe they called that out they did and of course no replay at this level for our officiating crew so 1713 and now rampart trying to dig in down by four Alissa Adkins serving here for the Eagles mate Wade is check back in for the Rams go on opposite court so free ball here for rampart set far side the touch rampart Emily Ellis there again the middle blocker she comes up big for the Rams and right now Pine Creek is having some difficulties setting that ball at the net the the first girl going up for it obviously is the decoy but there's nobody behind there Josh they're just having to dink it over the net so Kayla locusts the senior serving now a pass forward here by rampart tough play that added somehow the Rams able to keep it alive Peyton wave with a tremendous play here's Horton and that would have been out there you're right exactly we've seen several balls tonight that would have been out and Pine Creek making the wise decision well that's that ball go long and the Eagles back in front by four you talk about both of these teams still trying to feel each other out just a little bit here in this first set there also as the spatulas progressed playing not to make a mistake you've seen that a couple of times here from both of these teams and that's him able to fit it inside that back drive on the right hand Emma Jen rich the junior take another look times this one perfectly over the blockers and drops it just inside the backline now six points away from taking this opening set and a service error both of these teams have had their chances rampart to pull back into this one and and quite frankly the Eagles to win it but these service errors have killed them here in the first set and there's the other air for air well Nikki bloomin has just shaking her head she cannot believe the number of forced airs by her Rams in this first set he's teams trying to work off the rust here in this opening set mine creeks turn and a rough and how about a service ace Eagles five away from this opening set and a timeout of the floor take a look at the serve Peyton wait is there just doesn't quite get under it goes off the side of her arm 21:15 Eagles in control four points away from taking this first set at home then she apt to tip your cap to Marley's Tyler's team they came out of the gate in a hurry and they've been able to maintain this lead ramparts mounted a couple of runs here in this opening said but Pine Creek continuing to play their game and here they are four points away from going up one Ted I think and we've talked an awful lot about the talent of the rampart Rams getting those two transfers back having ten seniors on the roster but on the Pine Creek side they've already have two players verbally committed to play next year savanna not will go to the heart of America conference and play for Baker University she's very committed there and Gabby Wilson one of the centers on this team going to play for a head of the air force head coach Mark swindle in the Air Force Academy a great play to keep it alive second airside war and that's Riley Simpson she has been big for rampart here as the ball is set up nicely she gets the big right hand and knocks it in and the Rams down just five here in the first rampart nine points away from going out they got some work to do because the Eagles three points and they close out you and pack here Pike Creek High School is Pike Creek takes the opening set 25-21 Josh out vince greco and it's a power outage here so apologize for any of the technical difficulties on the viewership end of things but it looks like we are back up and running ready to go so set number two Pine Creek and they're gonna drop the opening point here in the second said it was a dominating performance by the Eagles in that first set they went out tend to rampart made a big run at the end but when all was said and done a four point victory in that first set for Pine Creek and here we go set number two under way and a two nothing lead for the Rams if the Rams don't have seven service airs in that first set they win set number one and that's one of the things that Nikki bloomin had talked about with her team in between sets they've got to keep the ball in play and they've listened they're doing a very good job here with the first two points of the second set great take there by wilkinson not able to keep it alive and pine creek is on the board here and set number two we talked about the great play at the net of rampart earlier but looked at the Eagles as they get the block to drop and get their first point of the match we talked about the great news gymnasium here Josh Lee they need to get the electrician back I think it's still a few kinks to work out our fagner serve they're not going to be able to keep it in play and rampart Vince a much different looking team here in set number two they've calmed down they're playing boys are playing it's an old sports cliche Josh but they're playing their game they're not making unforced errors right now doing everything right mine creek able to keep it in play they'll set it over so on opportunity here for the Rams to strike set straight up an attack err couldn't get it our product Haley Johnson tried to finesse it over and just like that the Eagles within one we talked about airs that wasn't golden opportunity for Johnson just to tip it over trying to pick her spot and may have taken her eye off the ball as she just missed it and it fell short faith Portman the junior will jump it up line drive great serve to dig of the back row there by Wilkinson there's the pass set far side pound the diamond right hand blocked out off the fingertips of a Bree Warburton and we are even at three Gabby Wilson comes up with the spike as you said goes off the defender of rampart but here's a key right here you're taking a look at the serve of faith Horton and it goes out I probably jinxed her but she reeled off eight consecutive points in that first set as she was a big reason why Pine Creek was able to jump out to such a commanding lead and the opening set so Haley Johnson looking for an answer set their side 40 Vince Gaby Wilson the senior brings it impressive the outside hitter she's a captain on this team she's from who he said committed verbally to go to the United States Air Force Academy valken she could use some big hitters and that was a big hit right there so with the point the put way by Wilson were even at four that goes Alyssa Adkins good serve a little top spin on it set backside the block up front 14 and 5 that's rough in general we've called ruffs named time and time again here tonight perfect synchronization again as the two of them time their jump and they set down that block in Pine Creek up by a point here in the second elissa at conserving for the Eagles service error or plaguing both teams in this match tonight and certainly ramp artists felt more on that and with seven service errors in the opening set costing them perhaps at first set so even at five and back goes having over 10 you invents these aren't even close I have kind of speechless right now because you're right we we talked about keys of the game serve tough take them out of their system mix up your shots serve aggressively those are keys from both coaches maybe they're serving a little too aggressively because there's another in both nikki bowman and molly Stuart's towers have just got to be beside themselves right now because these are self-inflicted wounds absolutely you talk about a free throw in basketball a serve is basically the same thing all you have to do is put it in the quarter play to start the action and neither one of these teams are doing that right now straight up in that and that's going to be a point here for Pike Creek so it's not pretty but the Eagles look up at the scoreboard and they find themselves up by one back sir for Pine Creek will be number five that's a city Martin Anna has been outstanding here tonight live drive serve rampart on the Block back goes out and now the Eagles starting to find their legs here in the second set they open up a two-point lead ruff back to serve for two straight I believe in that break between set one and two the Eagles have made some adjustments at the net because they are really timing these jumps absolutely perfectly set fire side throw gavel right-handed there it is who do you turn to how about the sophomore Riley Simpson and she got it through the land of giants at the net mine Creek not able to come up with a block there and that really stopped some of that momentum for the Eagles see if the Rams can capitalize so here's grace Wilkinson a junior to even it up there's the pass for the back row set down the right hand bang-bang play Sidney Collins to perfection we talked about the the senior leadership of the Rams Collins a senior for the Eagles and that was a big kill from Sydney Collins and she's really the block specialist for Pine Creek coming into this match with 25 blocks on the year Chandler Nelson just long and now rampart an opportunity here to even it up and set number 2 trailing 98 a be Wolverton checking in is Peyton Wade heads to the bench he'll dive down to the back room set bar side [Music] pine creek trailed early now we are even at night apiece that's a tough play fool Gabby Wilson to try and set that one down she was deep in her own in and tried to put a little extra on that one and it went along the Olympic Oracle all right faith Horton seeing a ton of activity here tonight for Pine Creek what a save by Wilkinson Simpson how about the teamwork of Collins and not you can't time this any better and you can see some of the frustration now starting to set in on the RAM cider there big hitters are up there giving it their best shot and it's coming right back at him off the serve of Agner he'll put that plate straight up I will consider Pine Creek now quick hitter the touch not able to get there in time switched it up a little bit did Sydney Collins for rampart as she goes up and just Dinks it into the empty space not able to come up with that grace Wilkinson put a good effort by Wilkinson so Pine Creek Mia agar with an 11 9 8 or 11 9 lead back set and that is an emphatic answer what a shot by Hayley Johnson and she gets up takes the nicer and that's a tough play to make what a shot by Tim Sarah Tori there our 20 TV camera guy on the end bringing that one right into your living room all over it tonight so 1110 served by Simpson back set quick hit her with the left hand roll down no his rant part dare to recover and that's going out off a pine creek we're tied again what a second set these two teams delivering here tonight we knew this one was going to be a good tight matchup but I didn't know we'd be this close because this is a back and forth battle all evening here look out trouble and they give away at other points that gets the rampart crowd a little bit juiced up as the Rams now out in front by a point they've been battling from behind pretty much all night long this energy is outstanding by both student bodies and another service air riley simpson long with that serve putting this one back at 12 apiece and this is who you don't want to see serving if you're rampart faiths Horton back for the Eagles if she is a rhythm server what she's on Lookout all tied at 12 past for the back row quick set tap down and rampart able to set it up they'll go over to the far side punch down and somehow Pine Creek is able to squeeze a point out of what looked to be a sure rampart point well that ball was definitely going to go out by the Rams the plate in the back by via Agner and luckily for the Eagles the rampart player played it long as well watch the deep serve v Horton it does not allow the Rams to set up that big spike at the net she hits that one so far back and so far back it was out service era now by Horton and were tied again in his bed punch counter punch here set number two Haley Johnson the senior serving for rampart boy this has been a tough night from behind the line for Nikki bloomin Steen substitution coming in for the Eagles and McGinn rich we'll check back where she will check back in also coming in is Alyssa Adkins number 10 so add kids to serve now for Pike Creek just clears dig quick set at the net pushed over and Horton so free ball here for RAM park can they take advantage yes Emily Ellis the quick hitter big hit and like you said the quick hitter watch how quickly it happens boom set and it's down that caught the Eagles off-guard and I think Josh that the Rams are gonna have to do more that because ramparts done a great job of timing those blocks at the net those quick hitters maybe what the Rams need here to finish off this second set see if they can take advantage in a 14 all second sat lookout trouble for the Rams now a free ball for Pine Creek can they capitalize back sample the right hand yes all right Creek responds nice hit and it goes off the fingertips of a Ram defender as you'll see on the replay good spike but it's just redirected off the fingertips of the Rams well both these teams starting to tighten the play up here set number two good pass back set look out what I dig in the back row by Gabby Wilson all for naught as rampart is just even up this second set at 15 back and forth back and forth Kayla Lucas checks in for the Rams [Applause] another long survey Koran or the Eagles chose to play that one off the arms of Mia Agner but that was going out as well invents a lot of indecision tonight on that back row of buying creep we've seen them play balls that clearly would have been out that time they were uncertain at costume a point and I'll rampart for a two point lead how about a big send over on the back row from faith Horton again the dig blocks is there five green jerseys on the Eagle side faith Horton is everywhere right now Pine Creek willing themselves to a big point to even up the second set it's 16 what a match this has turned out to be here tonight the atmosphere to go with it this place make times deafening here on a thirst hit on at Pine Creek High School but pan and Riley Simpson says no give me one more shot puts it away he had two shots out of it and then you see it's dug out nicely by the Eagles but you said not the second time and I'm done with that and she puts it down in a big way so grace Wilkinson now back for rampart good serve can see Vince on that return it had Pine Creek scrambling and rampart taking advantage up front that was Simpson and number ten Johnson at the dead we talked about the Eagles on the net take a look at that tandem boom right back at you so advantage rampart they lead by two seven to go out and even up this match top play so free Paul here for Pine Creek quick set and that is point Eagles pitch swing by Sidney Collins and she's been a real difference maker in the second set for the Eagles big hit here and she's also come up with some big blocks at the net that's a big point that stops a little bit of ramparts momentum if you're a fan of the Eagles so Chandler Nelson to even it up at 18 quick set straight up deflect it out and rampart you'll love the guts that both these teams are showing rampart now six away from closing it out and a timeout of the floor is Pine Creek head coach Molly Stowers wants to talk about it well well she doesn't want to happen is let Riley Simpson the big outside hitter for the Rams get hot she scored a couple of the last points here for rampart we've talked about her a lot during this broadcast tonight and when she gets it going and she not so much the arm swing Josh but when she starts being able to pick her spots on the floor she's dangerous well what a second set here if you just joined us Pine Creek took the first set 25-21 thanks in large part to a hot start the Eagles went up ten two and would hold on to the lead to close out that first set but rampart they need this one they go down to O in a hostile environment it's gonna be tough to overcome there's no doubt about that in rampart new coming in here tonight with the rivalry with the student body getting behind this team that it would be a very difficult place to play I mean literally this and you and I've done a lot of games but it's very loud in here I enjoy the atmosphere takes me back to my high school days where there really is this is true school spirit you got to love it making some noise on a Thursday night here in Colorado Springs for the back row high creek able to save it no attack here and how about this the Rams now up three five away from closing out set number two and a substitution here for the Eagles as in comes Caitlin cyd defensive specialist is Sid she steps up for to return that serve and you know sometimes coming off the bench Josh or a little cold the serve was low she just couldn't get her hands underneath it Oh Caitlin said this season 127 bakes and now rampart for two straight said able to receive that serve and a set that's wide and rampart now three away from closing out set number two Rams consents another substitution coming in for Pine Creek CID will sit back down and they bring number three Gabby Wilson one of the captains back in they need some offense now well corkle service air and rampart is just a loud pine creek to cut it to for the Eagles with an opportunity here up one set tonight he is just get those serves in Agner does a good job of it they're set and again Sidney Collins having a hand in the plane she's fired up about it and rightly so as she times it boom right back down faith our grace wilkinson could do nothing with that block the Eggert set straight up and with the right side dug out of there by Horton the southpaw able to set it over back set for Rab Park [Applause] [Music] big swing bigger blocks attacking oh they force it wide and Pike Creek trailing by Forest just cut it to two and a timeout on the floor I think what you saw during that last timeout that Pine Creek took Coates Stowers said to her team stop trying to be fancy stop trying to do the little Dinks stop trying to hit your serve 100 miles an hour let's keep the ball and play and let our ladies at the net do their thing they've gotten back into the game they were down for just a moment ago and now they're down two with the momentum back on the Eagle sides so Pike Creek will have the serve out of this timeout trailing by two but leading one set to none and certainly the Eagles are aware just how big this would be if they could find a way to close out this second set and go up two games to none two different Huddle's during that timeout Eagles very animated dancing around the huddle they come out with a lot of enthusiasm a little more stoic and businesslike on the rampart side as they were told by coach bloomin focus don't let them get another point let's take care of this right here egg nurser with some drop to it set farside simpson tipped up and a good dig of the back row here by pine creek falls over from way out Gabby Wilson and it's perhaps a miscommunication on rampart side and take a look she finds the perfect spot on the floor there wasn't a gram within about three feet of that and the Eagles are down one with a chance to tie it up here take her that serve dies just on the other side of the net puts at torn out the right hand is what are they going to say wide I think what's out fine three and had to be a deflection is what I'm thinking from our vantage point Josh it looked like it was out you're correct bits deflection and here we go twenty-two all Pike Creek on a 401 there now three away from closing out this second set mia Agner to serve again she has been red-hot doing a great job of putting it in playing deep along the backline the senior he talked about how she leads this team in pox holy smokes look at the pine creek pinch they go they can sense it they are feeding off the energy of that block by Sidney Collins vents a body language says it all you look at the pine creek bench there loose playing carefree and on the other side he gets the sense that rampart they're just trying not to lose at this pool and you see the Eagles huddle they're all enthusiastic they've got the momentum their student body is on their feet and let's not forget the job that Mia Abner has done the outside here over 510 junior on the service line Josh is pretty simple put it in play and good things happen all that said keep in mind ramparts got ten seniors they've got tremendous leadership and they realized certainly a one-point deficit certainly not insurmountable but they need a stop right here and have to find a way to pull it out 23 22 Pine Creek with the lead and the serve Agner soft serve and just dug up I had Grand Park Simpson blocked out and there we go Lampard answers we are all square at 23 and that was a great play by Riley Simpson she did not try to kill it she saw that she had that light wall of pine creek defenders in her face and she'd strategic who played it a little softer off the arms and out of bounds of the Eagles players for backset now and how about this out of the timeout the Rams grip off to straight they are serving for set point and there's that leadership you talked about when they went back out on the floor all business for the Rams right now and they can win set to on this earth with the sophomore Riley Simpson set nearside sits over the right hand we are square again big hit again Abby Wilson you'll see it here from 20 TV gets it up and off the outstretched arms good kick play by the Rams but we're tied at 24 and it's faith fort oh boy Simpson [Applause] and that's a result of the serve a strong serve too hard on the return now it's the Eagles a point away win by two 25:24 now for set point pork back set free rally from a deficit late in the second set they take set number two 26 24 us that might be one of the best high school volleyball sets I have seen this year both of these teams really came up with big points but it was the Eagles who prevailed and the latter stages of set number two high creek look at a closeout this match set number three when we come back on 20 TV [Music] you well the pykrete egos taking advantage of home-court here tonight they lead the rampart Rams two sets to the line taking the second set 26 24 Josh how Vince Greco back here in Colorado Springs and boy Vince coming in on paper it looked like perhaps rampart had the edge hit won six straight but momentum advantage pine creek tonight they have really fed off this crowd here at Pine Creek High School playing at home they do have a great crowd but do not count out the Rams as a matter of fact during that break the assistant coach for rampart turned to you and you said you gentlemen ready for five sets tonight so no quit in the Rams here tonight they are out to win this match they're gonna have to dig themselves out of a hole down to nothing Haven McCorkle will start things out here for the Rams and you could sense it from this team walked out of the locker room it looked like a team that was a little more relaxed and had a focus that they have clearly come out with here with the opening point in this third set on the back road now played off quick set at the net tapped down with the right hand and two straight here to open up set number two that's Tyra Marla take another look just nothing's plain and simple that's all it was a little set a little spike and just like the second set the Rams jump out early maybe McCorkle now for three straight and puts rampart at a pretty good position here to begin this third set sometimes when a team finds themselves in the hole that rampart is there's a little more focus and then there's a other side of the net there's a little more complacency we're up to we don't want to make a mistake the Eagles are now back in it with a big hit and point down 3-1 now Sydney Collins what a night number 8 is having huge hit she has to be close to leading this team in both kills and blocks tonight there's Chandler Nelson the senior for the back row rampart quick set go an answer from Tyra bar lar that's two straight for number 11 and we have not called her name too often tonight so there is an adjustment that Nikki blumen has made in between sets two and three hey let's get these senior involved in tire Marla are doing a great job right now what a 10 seniors on this rampart roster with the left hand change of pace up front for Pike Creek and boy that is feed port and she has been everywhere here tonight back set and rampart great effort on the part of Nelson 1 hustle by the ego's along that black line I gave that no chance Josh and Nelson brings it out and point for the rent Eagles no quit at all at pie Creek the eagle serving down by 2 that's a great dig point rampart the swing deflect it out and Paige petty the senior puts rampart up by three he goes had a couple of players at the net but too strong was page petty ball deflects out of bounds Point Rams heady a transfer from Air Academy High School back in the last couple of weeks for the Rams what efforts by Nelson that's two consecutive played she's made tonight to keep it alive but third is the Rams now enjoy a four point lead here in the third set that was a great play by the Rams but keep your eye on the young lady that a serving rice right now and grace Wilkinson that last serve had some heat on it and really did not allow there it is again the Eagles to get back in their service ace this looks like a different rampart team playing a little more loose dancing out on the court Haley McCorkle having a good time firing up her teammates there's that serve again grace Wilkinsons played by Horton the size the reach of Emily Ellis what a great play by Ellis one on one play the dink over the net doesn't go and you can see her nice and fired up with her teammates in a big lead for the Rams half dozen the advantage Wilkinson serves again we accept Wilkinson what a big hit with the right hand by rampart and answer the south pass have been a knock not leaves this team and kills and you can see in here runs up left hand drops it in how 218 kills coming into the night but a resilient Pine Creek team here tonight and they've got the person they want serving tonight Fay Thornton she has been outstanding from this position tonight thought the Rams might make a defensive adjustment to handle this sir but the same players stay on the court and there it is a deep deep serve and it goes off the net cannot be handled and there is Horton began Josh coming up big from the service line to straight and you have to believe Vince at some point it plays into the psyche the psyche of rampart cos Horton she hasn't missed many here tonight no not at all cuts the lead in half it's 8 for Horton again jumps it up fine serve play to the back row here by the Rams big swing and free ball here for rampart making some noise on the outside is Paige petty here in the third set Rams may have found something on the left side of the Eagles that's twice in a row the ball has been blocked out of bounds and heady getting her Club fired up over conserve and another service air boy that has certainly been the Achilles heel tonight for rampart can't give away free points Wolverton will come out after that long serve substitutions also for the Eagles so both coaches really trying to find that right combination this after here this evening here at Pine Creek High School Alissa Adkins who cut it to three trying to work the corner set far side block straight up in the air they go to the back set the touch finesse game at the net right now both these teams that ball was dug out nicely by the Rams Julia uh didn't Berg however it hits off the ceiling and that's a tough play when it hits that high 916 Alissa at conserving for another here for the Eagles that a resilient team tonight that's a fine serve set nearside pounded down with a right hand by Patty and Polly creeks gonna pick up the point it was close that looked like that ball was close to being in but the lines been on the right side to our right here called that one out and back goes Alyssa Atkins again you've seen faith Horton from this spot time and time again and now it's Atkins turned on a bit of a run here for Pike Creek top play a little bit of an overpass and boy Vince Emma Genrich makes a pay and this one was very close watch the timing and just stuff sit back down no chance for petit and the Eagles who were down six are now down just a point napkins again to tie it up service air and we've talked a lot about service airs but that was a good round of serving by Alissa Adkins she just stands at five five and to get that ball over that net with that kind of heat and that torque I was a pretty good job in serving Simpson and Lucas back in is Kayla Lucas will serve it up here for rampart holding out of this lead here in the third set listen to the crowd here at Pine Creek High School two hits for the Eagles too many touches here on that possession eleven eight now Rand I'm going to have to speak up just a little bit here over the crowd love the atmosphere here on a Thursday night of Pine Creek High School on fives of flooring the ramps there lead cut to two [Applause] glad you're with us on 20 TV tonight because I hope you all are enjoying this as much as we are what a show tonight by the student athletes and of course the student puppies at a rampart able to find the floor checking back in for the Rams will be Tyra Marla and we called her name earlier on she had a couple of big hits and blocks let's see if they can't get her involved here ball nine game set number two popped forward big swing by Simpson the sophomore now rampart will set it up and that's going to the Rams a double hit push it out to a four-point advantage [Applause] for the back row quick hitter found it well that's a great combination Vince it sure is and I like again the fact that they have been switching this up it wasn't a big hit it was a quick hit and I think that to get back in as both these teams are going to have to find a couple of little niches and do things differently over played and rampart extensively before well just when you think the Rams are going to start to pull away pykrete cancer so opportunity can the Rams create a little more separation up by four now they have the serve working up 1410 good sir but Santa can't pound it down what that combinations been outstanding Sydney Collins with the pulled away coming right at you here as she elevates and there is no chance for the rampart defenders to bring that one back into play Lissa Atkins on a assist now you can see the camera shaking a little bit that's because these Krauts are going nuts here they won't sit down and good for them Nelson serve sip set black down and columns once again Josh I'll help everybody out here how to take a little break to get the ball back in play since assistant Vince Greco on that play yes the Eagles with into 1412 we talked about it just when it feels like ramparts pulling away Pine Creek makes the play and in the back row here's Simpson now throwing down on that outside spot has been a red-hot for the Rams here tonight she really has and she picked her spot that time now with that momentum off the big hit and the kill you'll see Simpson back serving trying to extend that Rams lead Simpson [Applause] set over pass forward tap back Pine Creek scrambling Porton sips and straight up in the air Simpson out of the right hand without lengths so big for the back row quick canter and attack air in pine creek within two grand part wanted a touch at the net there they're not going to get it as the point will go over to the Eagles you know Josh volleyball is a team of communication it's like baseball you're calling off your teammates when the ball is coming to you I don't know how either one of these teams can hear any signals are calling out there right now back set for the right-hand dugout on the back row by Pine Creek they'll go up front and it's the sailcloth Savannah knocked what a big hit by not knocking that one right off the top of grace Wilkins who had no chance to tie it up boy Chris gritty resilient play by Pine Creek here tonight by both these teams for that matter what a match it's been and it easy point up front Gabby Wilson nobody home for rampart and how often have we seen this tonight the Eagles get down and slowly claw their way right back into this one and we're tied here in the third set from the back row set far side oh that would have been out I think you're right and that violation called against Pine Creek Creek break for the Rams let's see if grace will consenting company can take advantage very talented rampart team it's just been one of those nights out of rhythm see if they can grind out a third set victory to extend this to four locked out nice set on the play from Pine Creek Sidney Collins she's been the big hitter but that time she was the decoy Vince the fire the emotion for Pine Creek tonight it's been off the charts and look who's back to serve horton has been red-hot go to the opposite corner back set top play they get it down the dig that's a great timing play take another look just up and down no chance at all where the eagle is what a play in a momentum builder for the Rams and a one-point advantage here for rampart port back set and trying to go cross court is savanna not and attack air and you're gonna see that brings to her feet coach tower Pine Creek that's not the kind of place she wants her she wants them to keep the ball in play not make those four stairs and point rampart here we go a little bit of read breathing room for the Rams up 1916 but we saw this last set rampart led 20 to 18 and now a service sarin it's 1917 Vince it was 20 to 18 and Pine Creek rallied to win that one 26 24 long way to go in this set number three no doubt this one's a long way from being over as that's served by Payton Wade hit the net that was really close though to drop it over there's the lesser Adkins now the junior for Pine Creek walk down and out good timing by the Eagles but that one went out just too powerful to hit off the Rams Gil so petty is out as his Julia Edinburgh and back to serve it up here for the Rams Lucas at a time out of the floor down 22:17 rampart and if it's if you're head coach Nikki Blumen it's just getting this team to close out this third set and get it to one more and they've been in this position before as you said they are all eyes now listen to coach bloomin as they try and find the next five points and win their first set of the night to our left the Eagles they're still pretty loose in their huddle but they know that they can't do it it's they bent down before we'll see what happens here and the last few points of this third set there we go out of the timeout or what a 5a Metro showdown this has been here tonight two teams leaving it all on the floor on a Thursday night here in league play so out of the timeout Kayla Lukas serving here for the Rams Eagle is pretty deep on their defensive rotation a lot of room she can drop this one over the net so we're ready to go can the rams send it to a four-set backset pine creek straight up in the air and point pine creek look like perhaps the Rams player slipped onto the net violation both teams not showing any signs of nervousness Gabby Wilson that's a good server to the back row quick sat miscommunication and I was a tough tough set from the center Haley McCorkle there she just didn't get enough on that allowing her teammates to try and get that one over the net now serving to tie it up again and service there and a wise play by rampart they let it go long and now the Rams four points from closing it out boy and what a last-minute decision by Peyton way to let that one go out she knows and she's still smiling on the court that was a close call but a heads-up play by Wade except what Tyra Marla has been huge in this third set she has been the different make difference maker for the Rams no doubt about that what a big point three away from closing it out horton set far side that falls to the floor I just keep waiting from one of these teams to go on a big run and make a mistake and it's not happening Josh the Eagles knit down they come right back the Rams let get down they come right back all right Creek down with the left-hand little back and forth at the top of the net near side rampart an opportunity to go up three they will big swing by Simpson they needed that did the Rams got a little bit of a cushion here great poise and a great shot by Riley Simpson timeout on the floor the Rams two points away from sending this to set number four nobody has sat down in this gymnasium all night long a lot of energy a lot of excitement Nikki blooming talking some strategy with her players wanting them not to make a mistake keep the ball in play on the other side all Eagles eyes on their head coach as well as they try and get back into this one down three Eagles lead this one tonight - nothing we'll see what can happen here Ovitz we both spend a lot of high school games over the years and I'll tell you what this atmosphere tonight is as loud as anything I've been in in a while in terms of high school gymnasium in particular volleyball this has been incredible by both student bodies absolutely a lot of different years going on creativity you can talk a lot about today's youth and today's Millennials but these kids and have nothing but school spirit tonight and you know what they're not being mean and it's a good spirited rivalry I like it rampart now two away from sending this to a four-set and how about a service sakes out of a timeout that was big by the Rams that was number two that's the set of hailer McCorkle to take the third set Simpson the emphatic put away and rampart bouncing back they take the third set 25 the 20 what a set that was and obviously it was do or die for the Rams but that's kind of what we expected all night from rampart the interesting thing now going into the fore side can the eagles who've lost for the first time tonight can they bounce back or is there just too much momentum on that rampart ram sideline to or Pine Creek back with the force set after this you big time bounce bout of the third set for the rampart Rams is they have extended this match and cut the pine creek lead in half now trailing two sets to one welcome back everyone Josh Hoffman's Greco and Vince Pine Creek fought hard not able to close out that third set and now rampart with life and we'll see how Pike Creek responds in this fourth set with the opening serve close interesting use these there are three minutes in between sets rampart was back on the floor a minute out of that timeout ready to play they may have a little bit of momentum like you said let's see what the Eagles to do here throw it over the right hand rampart now will set it up set for Sidney Collins and on the other side Riley Simpson thought she had this would take a look boom everything she has and there's her reaction on the other side I can't believe they got me Sidney Collins has been outstanding up front for Pine Creek oh now it served yeah Simpson the touch throw it up Horton now bump it up far side and that's the man and I lock up put by Collins pawns not positioning for my block that's an instant replay of the instant replay we just showed you on the outside you'll see Riley Simpson line it up but there is Collins and number four Savannah not Eagles pitching a shutout here - nothing Shanna Nelson the senior on the serve great serve again trouble for poorer for rampart Creek the college straight up in the air Nelson and an opportunity here for rampart Simpson look out Horton what I save not trouble it goes out of the far side and rampart is on the board tough play by the Eagles but where did that surf come from from Nelson that thing was a cannon so rampart now Haley McCorkle on the back row bit of a mistake by Agner for the Eagles very deep away from the net tried to put a little too much on and it was long it's a longer this match goes the more you get the sense that rampart starting to find its rhythm more and more here in set number four Simpson big swing and another fine play by Horton on the receiving and a too hot to handle Nelson and company combining for the point and the Eagles are up by one left hand if not again goes deep in the corner couldn't come up with the play was grace Wilkinson and it's three two pine creaking my egg or good serve mac set Simpson straight off for the air that's Nelson port there's not but the black pan carbon copy and one of the things that the Eagles are doing pretty well right here is they're not allowing the Rams to get up to the net for those big kills and they're setting it perfectly on the Eagle side teeing it up for their big hitter savanna not Agner serve the rock roll boy we talk about Sydney calls for Pine Creek how about Tyra marl are coming on late in this match some big points here for rampart they have to find a way to get her more involved everything she's touching right now is good the blocks those little dink shots and then they're the big hit find a way to get her involved nearside throw down the right hand and that is good for a point pine creeks Gabby Wilson has put the Eagles up by two we're seeing a lot of different Eagles get involved here that was Wilson we've seen not of course we've been calling Sydney Collins name up at the net they're getting a lot of production from a lot of different players tonight it's served by Horton [Music] fine hustle play the back row by Agner big swing in the result going cross-court it's Wilson again what a shot picking her spot the big right hand and no chance for the Rams 6-3 now Pine Creek in the driver's seat his faith Horton back to serve it up for the Eagles but back set tap down after that voice I is the leaping ability upfront Gabi Wilson and Anna ruff 510 both of them are 510 won a junior won a sophomore and as we've talked about faith Horton the defensive specialist libero tonight back and has had quite the serve and there's an ace top the top of the net falls to the floor biggest Lee into this force set for Pike Creek up by five and there is a timeout a well advised timeout taken by head coach Nikki bloomin as her team has watched the Eagles jump out to a five-point lead here in the fourth set if it's Pike Creek has just stolen this momentum and the four said it looked like coming out you talked about a rampart didn't take all that three minutes we're back on the floor ready to go but Pine Creek has settled in and here they are up eight three is they're trying to close out rampart in this fourth set in Pine Creek one and one as we mentioned in 5a Metro play coming in rampart still unbeaten - oh no they'd won six straight but right now at Vantage Pine Creek well before the game if we go back an hour and a half maybe longer ago we talked about those keys and Mollie Stowers had told us on the third key mix-up their shots they need to remain unpredictable and more so than ever I think we're seeing that in the first eight points here of this four set we've seen good blocks we've seen an array of different hitter set this down for the Eagles so they're really going to their bag of tricks and different players here savanna not good serve opportunity here the touch throwing up by Wilkinson and tapped up for the air here's Horton back set Nelson to not but the left hand walk back up front again teaming up for the point was Tyra Marla and there's the Rams taking advantage of that timeout call regrouping and getting possession and momentum backed their way that was Paige petty with the block eight for now Rams down by four somehow Pike Creek able to play it and the point goes for vampire it was the surprisingly it was the side judge who called that in and the ball fell right in front of the head judge she asked for help and he called that one in grace Wilkinson serving here is our Miss air boy you don't need those ever but particularly when you're down and set playing in the fourth set flashback to that opening set Vince when Pine Creek committed seven service errors and ended up losing that first set 25-21 proved to be costly see what happens here coming in is Alyssa Adkins five five junior she'll serve it up EEP serve played here by rampart quick hitter pine creek able to get set up backset big swing and the results that Nikki boomin was looking for having Wolverton I believe was going to step up big time and answer in the clutch just over the outstretched arms of faith Fortin rams down three sir by Peyton Wade back set on the Rudd top play and rampart on a bit of a roll it's been a game a match of up and downs and momentum swings and right now it's the Rams who riding it trying to get back into this one line drive serve that may have been out Vince played it off the basketball hoop Horton a company able to set it over opportunity here for rampart and was that in out attack here in Pine Creek now up by three listen I'm not a referee and I am gone hundred percent I'm biased I am rooting for both of these district 20 schools tonight but I think that was in right in front of our table regardless Pine Creek will try to take advantage here back set good dig in the back row by Gabby Wilson now free play for a apart and not they are able to take advantage now my Creek wanted the call not gonna get it I think what Pine Creek said and since she hit it into the net they didn't touch that ball at all on the block and I don't know like you said there is no chance to review it we can look at it here in our 20 TV replay but Point Rams big swing out of bounds and Pine Creek now inching back out in front by three bringing back into the game a real momentum changer are the Pine Creek Eagles as back in as number eight Sidney Collins she's been outstanding tonight quick set and it's ricochet it out of bounds of Rams within two and back in comes marl are so interesting punch counter punch College comes in for Pine Creek and Nikki bloomin answers with Tiger Marlar the middle blocker up front [Music] over the head of Collins they're going to tap it down look out for marl or no over her head big swing by Simpson that is in and off the hands of Collins that's two in a row the Rams have found some new life as their hitters are finding space and the ball going off of the Eagle defenders it's a fine serve Horton good play over Simpson on the dig back to Simpson tremendous hustle on the part of Pine Creek opportunity here for rampart quick hitter and it is marl are once again up front for the Rams Eagles got caught too many players up towards the net you can see the wide open space back behind they had five defenders within three feet in the net almost a change of pace on that ball by Marla and it pays off we are even at 11 for set a pine creek punches back Emma Jen rich with the hit Rams cannot bring it back a slew of substitutions coming in for the Eagles that is number seven Chandler Nelson and number four Savannah not and we know how well we just saw last time Nelson serve it she's got a rocket jump serve Chandler fine serve good play by wilkinson Simpson sends it over opportunity here for Pine Creek quick hitter going with the touch up front as Collins the block out of bounds Simpson and company answer back big pressure play by the Rams elevate goes off the hands of not and out of bounds great look at by our D 20 here 20 TV crew tonight and then the core coldest serve a little bit behind so low all minutes they gift there for Pine Creek it looked like it was going to be an over Paul Vince pie egg there instead it's a point in a pie Creek lead and Agner back to serve for the Eagles [Applause] from the back row pine creek they'll set nearside great effort McCorkle will considered company that dig a row on this volley port a little too strong by not and you know Josh I think the last two points these teams are not getting conservative but you've seen the play slow down just a little bit they are playing not to make a mistake because every point is so important right now 13 apiece Simpsons serve Horton Nelson big swing and that's out Wilson attack air big mistake by the Eagles and now the Rams in front for the first time in a while here and the four set now two straight for rampart I'm not so sure what that call is the ball was barely over the net before the whistle blew and perhaps the Eagles had too many players out of position I know that sounds difficult but the refs was telling you can't have this pretty people back in the certain part on the court where's Riley Simpson backset fur not gold with a to hand over Simpson timing by Gabby Wilson that ball was up in the rafters it took forever to come down look at her late for it and then knocks it home for the winner 1514 Wilson and Air Force Academy commit her team serving to tie it up here's Horton that's a beautiful serve deeper to the back row locked up quick cans Nelson back set four not a soft over mylar no that's maybe the first mistake that she has made all night that ball hit into the net caught between wanting that's happened over and the big hit and the result was a net ball or the senior she's been outstanding though tonight that play is side she has brought a lot of energy a lot of Pig plays to this rampart roster here tonight going for the back row again at Gabby Wilson has found her spot we talked about Wilson a couple of plays ago the long ball had a little talk with her coach and the last two have been perfect [Music] [Applause] Court and serving a service air just misses now rampart the importance of every serve and grace Wilkinson an opportunity here in a 1616 set number for wilkinson another good server trying to get her team some points it'll change a pace and rampart is in front in case you just joined us Pike Creek took the first two sets 25:21 26:24 rampart bounce-back winning set number three 25 20 so here we are the Rams serving up by one in set number four quick hitter or how good is Gabby Wilson Bank oh she's been phenomenal tonight as they have turned to her for some big hits and the Eagles are fortunate there there's a little miscommunication in the backline and who is going to take that serve and that one worked out well for Pine Creek there's the LES Adkins now Holly but it's 17 Pine Creek of course coming off that tough loss getting swept by dougherty earlier this week Horton the dig rolled down the block up front that time Wilson is denied watch how Abbey Wolverton gets up there knocks that one back into her opponents side and another leave here for rampart Wolverton and Ellis combining for the wall and rampart up 1817 hanging dropping an end great dig by Wilkinson and that's out [Applause] even again you'll see how far back she tries to spike this ball from and almost gets it to squeak in she thought there was a touch on an eagle player but the officials did not see that now here comes the service specialist for the Eagles Kaitlyn Sid has 30 aces this year to lead Pine Creek set far side the block down falls on the floor big swing from Paige Patti back into the game more substitutions for both of these teams Riley Simpson and Kayla Lucas back for rampart rampart trying to send this to a fifth and final set there's six points away said although receiving in here for Pike Creek tremendous effort by Wilkinson at Pine Creek wanted the call not going to get it and the Rams now the officials are going to talk it over Eagles are upset about the call so the two officials will go talk there's a great look that coached Stowers and they will give the point to the Eagles now you're going to get some frustration from head coach Nikki bloomin take another look at it there they call it rampart I think they said the eagle may have gone under the net but that there did you good call they overturned it yes got it right and a one point four set tap down what a dig by sit on the back row the senior middle blocker is sheet fired up and that prompts a timeout from the coach of the Pine Creek Eagles Molly Stowers little slide step and the Rams are five points away from setting this to a fifth and final set boy what a night a volleyball here at Pine Creek and you know if you look over in that rampart huddle they've got some momentum they won that third set they're leading here and maybe in baseball Josh you know you get late in the game and teams turn on their rally caps they turn them inside out well looks to me like head coach Vicki bloom and has gone to the ponytail that was pulled about tonight no more long hair she's got her game on it's the rally ponytail Pine Creek Bay Trail 2018 let's go back to sets they trailed in that one in the second set 20 to 18 found a way to win that one 26 24 so not out of it yet but certainly advantage rampart because Vince the last two sets are nearly the last two sets this rampart team they've looked much different they really have they've stepped it up again they've been playing with a little more confidence a little more ease not so nervous helped over there by rough and that's wrong look out Pine Creek within one Caitlin said made the right decision looked like she was going to try and block that one and set up the offensive play the last Sukkot pull their hands down and it goes out of bounds there's Hannah rough to tie it up Sydney call it who else a little mistake by the Rams sending the return a little long and Collins makes him pay and we are dead even at 20 all right Creek will not go away trying to close it out before ruff big serve again Simpson great hustle here by Pine Creek set for Simpson Sid is right there try the near side Simpson again but set heads-up play up you said that right what a heads-up play that ball barely gets over the net and watch Agner just send it right back really quick and it drops in and the eagles are on their feet in their huddle as we have another timeout that's been called on the floor they are four points away from closing out this match how many times have we seen the team that calls the timeout tonight how fast they come back and get that momentum yeah Nikki Blooming call the timeout she needs to get the momentum back to the Rams side now you can see the Eagles they are fired up 30 seconds going this time out there on the floor they want to play right now keep in mind pine creek leads this two sets to one they can close it out rampart dropped the first two sets one the second but pine creek advantage here for the Eagles 21 to 20 and serving is the senior and a rough Simpson wow I thought there was no way that Riley Simpson was going to bring that one back into the corner play look it out far outside she is and lights it up between two Eagles defenders what a lot what a spike 21 apiece and only Ellis said now the receiving end here for Pine Creek opportunity here for the Rams so go Simpson block down and this game advantage ramp part of the fourth set up 22 to 21 we said it coming out of the timeout the Rams have always been tough out of those timeouts scored the last two and they are now in front is Elvis Colin Beck's it again Fortin cross-court simpson to finish it what an effort sad or the rafters in the corner it's two boards away from taking this to a piss the Rams have been so smart these last three points not trying to do anything fancy keeping the ball and play keeping it in front of them and keeping it simple and they have been rewarded for their efforts timeout taken by the Eagles Wow got checked I'm here for Pine Creek can they find a way to claw back and close it out in four but rampart way it has literally been like two different matches pine creek on the first two and it's been all rampart in the third and now four set how equal how these two teams been tonight now coming in rampart had the better record we showed the statistics that three of the categories the the Eagles led statistically and we're seeing it tonight these matches have been nail biters all four of them and we're not done with this one yet now the momentum set number four with rampart will it stay that way serving for the Rams Evan Lee Ellis two points to take this to a fist set [Applause] Fortin set up front collins hangs the block attempt kept the lie above the right hand by add kids quick header in rampart one point away from winning this for set Rams can feel it again very simple play and the excitement set point for the Rams Emily Ellis to serve said got checked city they have battled back taking the last two sets we are going to a fifth and final set here at Pine Creek High School stick around the finale when we return on 20 TD [Applause] you what more do you wanted a Thursday night here in Colorado Springs a fifth and final cent rampart and Pine Creek a game that has gone back and forth the match it has gone back and forth and Vince Greco what a way to finish thing this thing up it stood at number five it's been the fastest two hours in sports tonight Josh this thing has been back and forth fifth set deciding fifth set they will play to 15 you have to win by two so the way things are going tonight 15 might not be enough well it has been punch counter punch Pine Creek took the first two sets rampart the last two and the opening server this fist set goes the Eagles way and that's Nelson back there again she's had that powerful jump serve yeah all right again line drive serve set far side play there by Simpson mind Creek now that's Wilkinson Simpson straight out for the air Collins with the right hand but not able to score the point is pine creek out of the gate here up to knit off the hairy short set they didn't go for the long hitter they sent it up for Collins she's been quiet the last few points maybe that woke up the sleeping giant with the right hand Chandler Nelson Simpson Horton the dig back set with the left hand again it's Savannah not the captain puts the Eagles up three well they were very loose and that huddle going out here for this fifth set laughing telling jokes dancing around and they're playing very loose right now they all said again that's a great school punch right back down caught him off guard what a second time we've seen that tonight Vince what a smart play by Mia Agner as that ball was set back a little too far by the Rams and she just sets him right back they'll sit again over to March but boy good serving by Chandler Nelson the Eagles with a 4-1 lead in substitution for rampart is in comes Abby Wolverton the senior and I'm a core Co on the serve played by Horton Mia Eggar the big swing for the point for Pine Creek and the Rams had the server they wanted back there in Haley McCorkle she leads the team with 40 serving aces but I want to read by the Eagles at the net to get that point Agner team up 5-1 again playing to 15 that's a dig it's the call they're gonna say internet was Gabby Wilson didn't like to call still not gonna like it but it will stand service goes back to rampart and back there for the Rams is Riley Simpson sophomore in a big spot here trying to cut the deficit to two quick better and trying to change the pace was Nelson that pass off the mark and the Rams now within two Simpson continues to serve that worked a few minutes ago at that time the set was line drive Collins had no shot Horton Nelson now rampart to set it up second one look at him off guard change of pace that's pitch petit and change of momentum we seen it all night I know we're repeating ourselves quite a bit but boy has this been a game of game swings back and forth back and forth simps it again to tie it up Horton Nelson set nearside cone to have the right hand but a better play on rampart sin [Applause] Russell from Collins Wilson sends it over opportunity here for rampart they go to the back set throw him down good gig Rams have had a tough time stopping that one all night the left-hander gets it on the right side of the court and just goes the opposite direction for the kill bayport good serve really handsome Drock to it that was out and perhaps a Paul Chandler Nelson shoulda let go it's dead points Graham pardon it's six five wait what a match this has been both teams leaving it all on the floor here tonight here's grace wilkinson what a gig petty grace Wilkinson saved that point she had a nice serve and then her pancake set and the big shot by rampart right down the line to tie this match up expect nothing less than a fifth and final set here tonight to 5a rivals Wilson drop it over hanging up in the air and now Nelson set far side Wilson blocked out kept alive wilkinson Wilson combining within a rock for the point but what a save by hailey McCorkle to keep it alive for the Rams but then it's too much as Anna ruff and teammates put it back the other way so Alissa Adkins serving now for Pine Creek one of those heady players for head coach Molly Stowers that's him oh they're gonna say and right official and good position to make the call Rams wanted a touch of the net they won't get it to find it was a big serve and a little bit of confusion by to rampart players not knowing who to go for it but the Eagles big hugs they are six points away from a victory time out of the floor nine six our score Wow I will say this and no way want to be negative but I do think there are too many time outs in high school volleyball agree it's disrupted the flow the momentum of this game and obviously both coaches in particular Nicki bloomin wants to make sure everything is set just right here heading down the stretch check out that goose but here's the thing that's been so great tonight our cameraman Tim Sarah Tori over there is shooting that Pine Creek crowd but I can't see anything I can hear them but they're all wearing camo they're invisible full fatigues tonight and pine creek full till of 9:6 on this earth quick hit her up front Horton able to keep it in play quick over by rough back set block down Wilson and company is there petit tries it hit it falls to the floor great pressure play by Paige petit great distance from the net and she finds a seam Rams come back into it now the emotion the players put outstanding tonight Paige Wayne Peyton wait and it's service air advantage Eagles now they are five away from closing it out Gabby Wilson good sir her great recovery rampart able to help it over max set throwing down dug up paddy the touch can ain't I really don't know what else to say both of these teams are fighting for their lives and playing some great volleyball so pykrete will set it up its rampart back to serve it Kayla Lucas and I was a desperation play by number five and a rough as she didn't choose in no-man's land just got a hand on it and is able to get it up and over the net for a three-point Eagle advantage 11 ain't now this has had a rough hustling overs McCorkle high up in the air the good dig at a back row by Pine Creek attack here Rams will not go away magner had a shot they're a little indecisive Lampard serving Emily Ellis to cut it to one fifth and final set called it on Tyra marl our the point will go to the Eagles no argument by either coach crucial mistake and now Pine Creek they can serve out Nelson she's been outstanding for that spot tonight sips and misses going cross-court and a timeout taken by Nikki bloomin rare miss by Riley Simpson had that one teed up just a little too strong and it drops out now everybody fans behind us rampart student body Pine Creek student body they're on their feet well Riley Simpson the transfer on a Palmer Ridge missing on that play and if you're head coach Nikki Bulman it's finding a way to claw scratch whatever you need to do but extend this fist set absolutely she called that timeout and immediately was clapping getting that team fired up telling her girls that this is not over we are rampart high school we've got this her team's out focused talking amongst each other Eagles back on the floor and they've got one of their better servers back at the backline ready to launch one over the net and noise coming alive what a served by Nelson go away they are so strong out of those timeouts to stop that momentum and get that point 13 to 10 Rams serving halema coracle service there and here we go match point well we haven't talked a lot about service air since that first set but that was costly here in the fifth and final set for the Rams for the match egg [Applause] played up by rampart after that helped over I am still alive kept fighting that ball was touched several times could not come up with it were the Eagles and now back serving is Riley Simpson her team down three to extend it the sophomore in play but can't drop down [Music] and here comes a student body for the pine creek eagles to celebrate with their team and and we can't say it they were down in the conference they come

good early evening to you from district 20 Stadium you're gonna watch some high school field hockey thanks for joining us my name is Brian German alongside me as Dave told her is the Liberty Lancers the 10th ranked team in the state will be taking on the 9th ranked team the Arapaho warriors and we're looking for a good one day should be a real good one Brian you look at these two teams they come in with identical records Liberty 3 9 and 2 Arapaho 3 9 and 2 as well there's no conferences that all they're all in the state 5a same system but these two teams coming in very close on the RPI identical records we should have a good game tonight and Liberty is a team actually that's made up of several different high schools so it's not just girls that go to Liberty high school it's some other schools as well it's a it's an all district 20 team and all six schools are represented five girls on this team from our Academy for from Liberty and Pine Creek rampart as well and one each from DCC and one from TCA they all come together they all play here at Liberty and this is the third year of their program they've taken girls that have come together from a lot of different sports some to play soccer lacrosse some former volleyball players as well they've all come together and they've all learned the sport about at the same time ingesting your Koski former standout field hockey player herself is leading this team this is her second season and she's doing a pretty good job at the at this level you're teaching these players pretty much the whole game from the ground up they have one girl Jennifer Schneider that came in she transferred in and she's played before the high school level every other girl they're learning as they go along and they're learning from two pretty good ones Jesse near Kowski Taryn Brill the two coaches they both won national championships when they were collegians playing for the University of North Carolina so they've got a couple of good coaches but they're not so much teaching skills and teaching strategic strategy I should say their teaching skills they're teaching these girls how to play the game from the ground up it's been fun to watch they won two games each of their first two seasons and their win on Saturday when they went up with Smoky Hill their third win the most they've ever won so that was an exciting time for this team it certainly is and on the other side for the rapaho warriors it's Ashley Loftus in her first season for the Warriors and like you said they have been been doing about the same thing both of these teams learning more about the game they don't have a bunch of players to come in and I've been playing this forever they're just just now learning well they really are an Arapaho started their program the exact same time Liberty did the 2015 season so both of these teams in their third year and you see they both have three wins this season Arapaho they won one game their first year they won two games last year three this season they they've been improving like we talked about Liberty they've got three wins this season and they're coming off a good win they were on the road last week they won at Smoky Hill four to one the week the week before that they played Cherry Creek the undefeated team number one team in the state played them do a very good game they lost 3-0 they gave up a couple of late goals but that might have been the best all-around game this Liberty team played was against the best team in the state hopefully they've got some more of those good all-around games coming up let's tell you take you through these starting lineups first the Arapaho warriors Taylor sabato Carolyn Weiss Katelyn fan Schmidt Abbie Chalmers Megan England amber winter strum hyper rondell Neve Murray Derbyshire odd and in the pipes will be Savannah Crowder and for the Liberty Lancers they'll go with Jennifer Snider Mackenzie due to Guam Jordan Toller kaitlyn tabeling penny Schwab Tessa Morse Olivia Ruth Campbell fair Madelyn bourgeois tasty Davis and Haley edge will be in the goal for the Liberty Lancers and Haley edge she does a good job for them really does as good as good as there is anywhere in the state Brian 166 saves that's second in the state she's number one in the state and saves per game at almost 12 per game so what that tells you is your goalies making a lot of stops your defense is letting a lot of shots get through on her but she's done a great job just a sophomore she was the backup last season Kristina Jensen was a two-year starter for this Liberty team she graduated Haley jumped into the role and as the coaches told us she's much improved over last season has done a great job especially on her rebounds Tessa Morris got things started and the Lancers will try and control the ball here and coach Tarkovsky gave us some tips to this game and some things they like to do and she talked a lot about to touch passing explain what that is doing well what she what she explained to us the to touch the first touch is stop the ball but get make good stop the second touch is a good pass she doesn't want this team dribbling and we've seen throughout the the season I've seen a lot of their games this season they dribble too much sometimes and the coaches have told us that as well they want to see quick passing the ball is faster than the feet make a couple of quick passes and we'll see if they can get some things going another one is winning those 5050 balls we'll keep an eye on that during the broadcast is as you know the team's energy the teams compete level let's see if they can win a few of those and then get balls into areas flats and throws get balls into space where they can run to them and and create some better channels and some lanes to get some offense going and the Lancers get a turnover there from a rapaho and they will start again with the ball and that's one of their better players Madelyn bourgeois one of two seniors on this team bourgeois and do d'avoir both the two seniors today and they were recognized before the game as this will be their final home game for the Liberty Lancers yeah and their final game of the season overall they end the season this season at home and and two seniors that they were part of the program when it started in 2015 they were sophomores so they've been with the program since its inception and I've done a great job dude applause a forward she'll be very active over on the far side running down the right wing and and Madeline boos wha the center defenseman she's very active she's maybe their best all-around player she plays strong she's got a great Drive when she can hit the ball so both of those seniors they will play the entire game and they'll be active neat Murray played the ball in there with a nice lift but the Lancers came back with it Jennifer Snyder played it forward and now here you see the Warriors trying to work something the Lancers collectively get back on defense that's Madelyn bourgeois trying to intercept the pass there nice job by penny Schwab also back on defense we're gonna get a call yeah so free hit coming up here for a wrap a hole they'll have to yeah there's their one touch they'll have to play it back and what you want to see here Liberty see if they can get on get on some people get some shots blocked and keep them out of the circle lots of warriors inside there and there's a call it's gonna be a foul a backhand you cannot hit the ball with the back side of your stick that's exactly what the Warriors did there and it's a turnover twofer to give back to the lands yeah so the game goes along for people that maybe aren't as familiar with field hockey we'll try to explain the rules as best we can were as familiar either but we'll try to try to explain as much as we can the stick has one flat edge and a round edge the flat edge is the forehand so unlike in hockey you can't play it with the backhand you have to turn the stick all the way around and and you'll see in some of the some of the tight shots some of these girls very good at turning that stick forward and back to use the the right side of the stick if you touch of that round side the reps will blow the whistle the ball goes to the other team nice job there by Olivia Ruth stopping that ball and playing it forward but the Warriors were back and able to retake possession there's a good look at amber Winter strum playing the ball in these two teams very close as far as talent you mentioned they've both been only in existence as teams for three years so ladies still kind of learning the game as they go along you look at the number of goals that are scored Arapahoe scored 35 goals this season in 14 games Liberty 36 goals in 14 games so these two teams they're almost identical in everything they've done now they played three times Liberty has won all three times that they played and they met once earlier this season up at Arapahoe McKenzie do Dubois scored the game-winning goal in a 1-0 game so maybe the Lancers with a little bit of confidence and there's a good look at penny Schwab right there the defensive middie and he Schwab won the the one player from the Classical Academy you mentioned all these players a lot of these players from different schools but she's the one from the Classical Academy she does a good job there in her position when she's active she's a defensive middie but she will be up in the play she'll be up playing a forward position you'll see a lot of times those even the defensive Middies they'll be up into the play the forwards will have to rotate back a little bit the midis can run basically anywhere there's a good shot of penny right there or she will set it down and put this ball right back in play penny a junior midfielder defense for the Lancers there's a nice pass there couldn't be handled by du Dubois and most coaches probably prefer players to pass rather than dribble the ball exactly and that's what the the coaches want to see and we'll see as this game goes along the more passing there is the better chance Liberty will have on on offense and the better opportunities that they will have a lot of times you'll see them and again a lot of the girls they are learning the game as they're going along they'll they'll get the ball on their stick and as you can see that's a short stick so they got their head down they run right into traffic sometimes the more you can make a pass and and spring somebody there is no offsides so you can send the ball down and try to free up one of your teammates nice steal right there by McKenzie dutiful while she gets it and sends it inside look out Lancers trying to make a move but the whistles blown and it goes back over to the Warriors Olivia Ruth trying to make a play on that one and that was a ball that touched the foot that's another one of the rules in field hockey I cannot touch the foot of a play or just touch one right there that went off the foot panty swab and then once there's a free hit you'll see here the the opposing team has to back up at least five yards so when the ball set down they have to be five yards back and here's a good look at this free hit coming up here for the Warriors that's Darby Sherrod she will give it up to Neve Murray we've seen her lifting she likes to lift the ball to her teammates there's a great job defensively by Jennifer Schneider for liberty but she gets a call I believe it hit her foot must yeah I must have hit the foot down there so it goes back over a good job by by schneider of jumping and just being aggressive getting the stick down you'll see a lot of these players they'll just lay that stick down try to get a block tackle and get a turnover snyder brings the defense tor tries to send it forward to do to bois and the ball comes out again another whistle I apologize if they're the officials don't make their signals as well as normally in football they take the time they walk over they show us but here they make them real quick or they don't make them at all so we'll just let you know it's been a turnover we will do the very best that we can from our vantage point we watched a little bit of the JV game before this one to wrap a whole one two to one and we saw in that one a lot of the the whistles would blow and we would look directly at the ref and not get a signal either so we'll do the best we can moving ahead Tessa Morse sends it on the side trying to get it to penny Schwab but that's gonna go out of bounds and back to a rapaho and again it'll be nev Murray to hit it in and that's a play there that was we talked about the passing Tessa Morris trying to make a good pass to Penny Schwab put it in an area just went too far an out of bounds suit of Lawsons between the legs of the defender and out comes the goal keep the little answers still keep it alive she Neider finds it just outside the circle works it inside again oh the Lancers had a good opportunity there but the whistle blows in Savannah Crowder has bailed out nice job by Liberty getting that ball in it was a Mackenzie dude of wha that carried the ball in took the first shot we'll watch the replay right here there's the second one there's the last touch it went off the foot of the goalie right back to do two one and her shot went out of bounds and the Lancers keeping the pressure on right now another whistle and I'll answer steal it again dude of WA inside to tabeling tabeling swats it down wow that goal to keep really comes out does Savannah Crowder still working it inside another job by Olivia Ruth down there but the Warriors get the turnover so Brian has you called the name Caitlin tabling she's a junior goes to school over at rampart she started the season playing on defense and about midway through the season the coaching staff made a lot of changes they've really at anything they moved some players up and down and tabling was moved up to forward she responded with three goals and that win over Smoky Hill last week just misses the pass there and look out the Lancers still buzzing around the goal right here but again back touch and it'll be warrior ball yeah that one went right off the foot at AC davis another player that was recently called up jumped up to the varsity and she was at the top of the circle that ball hit her foot and this one come back to Liberty Olivia Ruth nope we'll get the hit up to penny Schwab yeah they're gonna call a free hit on this and penny I'll send it over and another whistle inside there's an illegal touch but yeah back and forth we go and he's a team they want to play quick we talked about their that they're passing that's gonna be a timeout that was called on the play but Liberty wants to play fast and when there's a whistle you can continually play unless the refs blow that dead and make you stop the ball for a free hit so the coaches have told him hey if that whistle blows when that ball is set take it and go and if they'll let you go you can you can get going before the defense ever gets set that's what they tried to do right there and then the timeout was called coach Turner Koski talking to her team this is actually Loftus talking to the Warriors and so far they've been really put back they've been playing mostly defense yeah they have most of this game has been played in their own end and and that's what Liberty wants to do you'd like for your forwards to go to work and and the forwards playing up front tonight for Liberty you got Mackenzie dutiful ah Olivia Ruth Kaitlyn tabling and as we mentioned tabling three goals in that last game they played a Florida one win over Smoky Hill Mackenzie doodle-oo has a goal as well Olivia Ruth has been active she has three assists on the season so you'd like for your forwards to go to work down there and keep as many balls away from your goaltender Haley edges as you can and there's a good look at number 55 right there Haley edge a sophomore five nine she gives this team some good length she's much improved over last season and second in the state with a hundred and sixty-six saves that's amazing that's it's an awful lot of safes oh it's a lot in a sport where you don't get a whole lot of shots typically and you know she's uh she's been acting a little too active you don't want you goalie making that many saves and you like what's happening so far as most of this game has been down in the Arapahoe end so the timeouts over and the Lancers coming back out onto the field we'll see if they can keep that pressure on against Savannah Crowder and the Arapaho warrior defense Arapahoe will have the ball for the free hit and again taking just about every free hit for the Warriors is Neve Marie and she'll take this one the official waits and now tells her to go and there's it cut off again by Schneider Schneider inside takes a shot oh just on the outside of the goal but what a play by Jennifer Schneider intercepting that and taking it in by the raid hustle there's a look at Jennifer Schneider we'll take a look at it right here Schneider jumps in intercepts that pass takes the shot and may have gone off the goaltender let's see if we can get a look at it right here there's the shot just went wide of the cage but a good look by Schneider and again look at little answers putting the pressure on the Warriors right here it's gonna be another steal as Tessa Morse sends it towards the end line it goes out it'll be warriors ball well you like the good aggressive play I mean it Jennifer Schneider jumped that last play Tessa Morris jumped out one and that's what that's what you want to see that the coaching staff despite that four to one win at Smoky Hill on Saturday they weren't real happy with with some of the effort that they were seeing from their girls but I tell you what early in this game I like what I'm seeing yeah Jennifer Schneider again this time she gets the call she'll dribble it up the right side send it inside looking for Duda voix the Warriors are there defensively but again Schneider comes up with it what a play by the freshman trying to send it inside the Warriors packing it in pretty well defensively they get it out on the side and here come the Lancers again what Jennifer Snyder's really really taken over on the right side of it she really is it we talking about those 50/50 balls being key she's won a bunch of them already and there's a good look at Jennifer Schneider right there Schneider trying for two to voix we're gonna call on the inside and that's an obstruction call that they're gonna call against dude of law and that's another thing in field hockey you can't put your body in a position that blocks the other team so and a lot of sports you're taught to protect the ball protect the puck well you can't do that you got to keep your feet moving and that time due to Vlad just kind of set a pick on the play and she got called for obstruction and due to voix gets cold as the ball hit her foot there this one leaps over the Liberty defender and rapaho will now set up and try and do something offensively McKenzie do Dubois seniors she should be all-district 20 she goes to school at DCC she plays ice hockey at rampart she plays field hockey here at Liberty covering three of the six schools in the district Wow that's amazing and here comes due to voix inside the tasty Davis I'll try and work it on the outside penny Schwab was running up the middle and there was gonna be a call and the Warriors get the ball back play on no advantage made after the ball hit the foot there of the Lancers Jordan toll are dropping back defensively knocked that one away that stops the Warriors and they will play again ooh that has to hurt that's gonna sting right on the inside of the knee that was Tessa Morris that got in and blocked that shot and she goes down on the play wow that's that's a tough one to take especially now because that ball is hard but it is cold here it is quite cold only about 40 degrees and they're in the shade so it's probably even colder than that here's another look at it oh that one stings I would now want to do that no that's why we're up here and they're down there exactly these these girls have played this sport they're tough you can see they don't wear a whole lot of padding they were a little shin guard that's really about it no no helmets they wear the goggles that that will cover up and protect their eyes and see Tessa Tessa morphs getting up and being helped off the field probably just a sting no hopefully yeah she'll just be able to walk it out a little bit have a nice bruise to show oh yes tomorrow yep that and that field hockey ball is hard it's a it's a hard resin material it doesn't balance it all like a like a lacrosse ball and well you take you take one of those especially on a cold day that stings any Schwab since this one up the midfield Judith was gonna come away with it a nice job tries to touch it over and a good job they were running on and a whistle and Olivia Ruth will set it up back outside the 30-yard line but Lancers go to the goal Penny Schwab pretty much trying to smack it inside there where you can get some control dutiful wah tries to get that one good defense by the Warriors and they're gonna call it off the foot again they are a good job by by Liberty quickly transitioning they got that ball into the circle that's what you want to do if you get a if there's any kind of faul that's in the box a foot a stick in obstruction to get a corner out of it which is a huge advantage for the offense again pressure by Liberty the Warriors are feeling it Lancers trying to get control of that ball there's penny Schwab she's got Campbell Fair running on she stops sends it towards the middle Tacey Davis is there but can't control the Warriors come back the opposite way good defense here and here come the Lancers once again nice job by Madelyn bouche wah that was a really nice play by Booz walk cuz she had to turn the stick over to stop the ball collected it and started the Lancers going the other way another whistle and the Lancers will take it just outside the 24 yard line any Schwab gonna have to run this one down she can players set up down in the corner Campbell fair can't play it still alive down there good job defensively by the Warriors and finally a back hit is called and it'll come back out to Arapahoe yep and that was Campbell Fair who was trying to work down on the baseline and you see Liberty there trying to mix things up they've tried to go to the middle that time they tried to make the pass down to the baseline and get it right back in the arc and again the Lancers going to work stepping in front of those passes Jennifer Schneider can't handle that one Jacey Davis and back to Schneider Schneider - Schwab Schwab didn't get enough on that one and it's kicked out of there but the Lancers will try and maintain control look out here comes a rapaho Madelyn bourgeois back defensively good hustling back by the three defenders for the Lancers and here's almost a takeaway that's the deepest Arapaho has gotten in this whole game into the the Lancers in and the Lancers almost got trapped they've been playing so much offense all of their defenders pushed across midfield and you wanted to push up a little bit but they almost got beat behind on that last play it's the Warriors now trying to do it on the left side but Jennifer Schneider is there and a call is made and the Lancers will take the ball this will be Mollie Kapus peipus typists malik apis in the game now for the Lancers took that free hit Benny Schwab tries to control it another back hit and it'll be Lancer ball Schwab tries to play it forward and the Madelon Eric Campbell fair couldn't play that one good hard drive there by penny Schwab maybe just a little little too hard but you can see how quick Liberty wants to play they don't want to wrap a hoe to get set up at all there's a ball played up into the air knocked down by a McKenzie dutiful wah a little bit high on that ball so now the lady Lancers will come back Kylie McCullough in the game and here they come forward again Campbell Fair is there Ruth trying to play it she goes down and a call is made that'll be a foul and the Lancers will get the ball and again it'll be McCulloch to take it nice smack inside 2 to voucherize because you kicked out of there by Crowder the Lancers keep the pressure on again Tacey davis and another back hit and again it'll be warrior ball what a great ball by Kyle and McCulloch to get that ball inside and it was outside of the arc again another rule in field hockey there's a good look at McCulloch gets all the way through it's touch by boot by my McKenzie dutiful wall and then kicked out of play by the goaltender but had that ball gone all the way through it wouldn't have counted you have to be inside the arc for that goal to count that's why you saw Mackenzie jump in and touch that ball and try to get a redirect in front but she wasn't able to Tessa Morris is up on the sidelines she's looking she's looking better than she was when she came out she's probably wishing she had some of those goalie leg paths exactly and I wouldn't have heard it all back now come the Warriors look out Madeline bourgeois is there they send it out to Lucy Fleming Fleming tries to get around the corner and we got a call inside we have an obstruction call on Liberty so this will be a corner coming up for Arapaho the first corner of the game and the corners definitely a chance where a team can definitely score on because you're it's basically a seven on four yeah it's an outnumbered situation you can see the Lancers have to start inside the cage they can't come out until contact is made with the ball the rest of Liberty has to start beyond the 50-yard line and a tough hit there by the Warriors look out deep inside and the Lancers make the stop on the corner so good job defensively by Liberty and you see this very often when a team gets one corner they typically get a couple of them because once they get the ball kind of down there in the mixer everybody goes to work and they're whacking and hacking in if you get a foot touch that goes against you Lancers come out quickly on defense a good job there and they're gonna call the ball to the Lancers great job defensively right there for Liberty and that was number 11 Mollie peipus yeah good job by kaya pass and I think she she took a stick on that one that's you take one of your fastest players and they call that the fly she's gonna run right at the ball and get there as soon as she can and she got there about the same time that stick came up and and got her there's a steel lookout shot inside and a goal the Arapaho Warriors have scored and drawn the first goal of the game nice pass inside from 12 yeah there's the redirect right in front the goal gonna be scored by Meghan England yep the assist on the play the pfaff in Schmidt and most of this game has been played down in a rapaho zone end and the one time they get a chance and again it comes right off of a corner you get a corner you get it in you keep put in playing Arapaho takes the early lead tough blow for liberty who had spent most of this first half in the offensive side of the field so that is a tough one as they fall behind one to nothing early in this contest bourgeois lifts it ahead it's gonna get through Campbell fair will play this excuse me that's Olivia Ruth sending it in for two Dubois and again coming out as Crowder with a big kick Lancers trying to put more pressure on but the Warriors again break out of there forcing Liberty to come back on defense great job by Cape has taken that ball but there's gonna be a coal and it'll go back to the Warriors for the free hit the Warriors amber winter strum takes it down low that one's gonna go across the in line and it'll be Lancer Bowl well early on in this half Liberty had four shots on goal all saved by Crowder and he's Crowder would come out several times play and kick that ball out of play the goalies cannot cover the ball they have to keep it alive they have to kick it Crowder's done a good job of that and Arapaho whether that early storm by Liberty and then once they got their opportunity with a couple of corners they took the early lead got to take advantage of those set pieces and they certainly did where with at two in a row and got the goal due to voix plays this one at the back of her stick it'll go back to Arapaho Liberty really trying to put some pressure on those free hits of the warriors warriors moving ahead they're trying to push it past that Liberty defense to get it to Megan England stolen back again Taylor sabato that's England who got the goal bourgeois comes away with it and he Schwab there now and hit it out of harm's way good job by Jordan Toller patty Schwab tries to advance the ball taken back and it's going to be a rapaho free hit right there it's just outside the 20-yard line boy Penny schwab had a good look she had Kate Kaitlyn tabling streaking up the left side and just couldn't get that ball up and over the stick and there's a call right in front and the Lancers will be able to come out past the 20 and keep possession Schwab sends it forward that's a steal quickly comes Arapahoe was not touched in a great job as the Warriors Kaitlyn fan Schmidt came back and got that ball and again another call that will give the Warriors another free hit went off the foot a penny swab it wasn't inside the circle so free hit coming up for Arapaho amber winter Strom guarded there quickly who's with by Tessa Morse who's back in the game good to see that for the Lancers gets the call and Morse will set up here for the free hit I'll give it to Penny Schwab Schwab who do a great job just sending that ball she's getting ready and does so right at the middle of the field but I wrap a hose there look out here comes Jennifer Schneider for liberty and Olivia Ruth is there as well Ruth now tries to play it to Schneider but it'll go out of Bounce you like what Liberty did right there is trying to change the field try to use the width of the field and so much of it was being clogged up here down the down the left side as Liberty is attacking and penny tried to put a ball to the middle it goes to the far side just a little too far but you like what Liberty tried to do just using the width of the field just like soccer and hockey sometimes you want to reverse that field or reverse the ice in hockey and get to the open side here's a nice pass inside and edges gonna watch that one just go out of across the end line free hit coming up here for Liberty good look at the senior Madelyn boos wall bouche wanna Schwab and on the outside Morse tried to play it forward but it goes out of bounds actually that went off of the Warriors as Morse checked with the official on that one got the call penny Schwab now just across midfield and as you could see in that tight shot it went off of one of the Warriors feet but there was no advantage gained it came right back to Liberty came back to Schwab so the officials will put their hand up as it's a foot but they'll just say play on if there's no advantage gained by the offending team good job defensively thereby an amber wennerström gets her stick down and stops the hit from Penny Schwab Schwab this time dribbles inside now she'll try and get by winners drum but winner Strom comes back up with it so here's amber winter strum trying to play it through the middle of that lancer defense looking ahead and look like peipus but look out the warriors keep it ahead and they will call it believe a foot off the foot of the Warriors and it comes back to the Lancers well early on in this game I thought Liberty had some pretty good energy and some good jump and now they're back in their own end they've been defending and when you're defending you spend a lot more energy when you're when you're back there doing that and that last ball that went through it looked like Liberty could have played that several times and they weren't able here comes Olivia Ruth up the middle it's got dutiful ah whither tried to send it down low and they'll get a call off of the foot and it'll be a Lancer chance here as they come up with a free hit should be just outside the 20-yard line this is Kyle and McCullough with it McCullough plays it back jordan Toller the nice touch forward that's a great job there by Tessa Morse Morris brings it down towards the end line sends it in the middle Lancers are down there and so is Crowder she did a great job getting down the butterfly position to make the save on that one great save by the goalie and it's gonna be a stick violation against Liberty let's take a look at it right here Morse gets the ball in look at all the white jerseys going to work Mackenzie do too vol with a couple of chances that were saved and there's the touch on the back of the stick by Kylie McCulloch but Lancers coming right back in right back in the Warriors come back at it though and the Lancers put pressure defense on but the Warriors will keep it like Liberty was on their heels there for a little bit but about the last minute they've they've shown a little more life they've gotten the ball down and had two shots on goal Jennifer Snyder can't handle it McCulloch and she'll send it in but there's a call it was out of bounds it'll be warrior ball substitution for Liberty coming into the game number six Chiara Casimir comes into the game Casper's sophomore from rampart High School she will replace Olivia Ruth it looks like Ruth has a issue with her shin guard she's getting a new tape job here in the sidelines meanwhile the Lancers come back up Morse trying to win the battle and does so gets the call this will set up another free hit and Kazmir will take nope she'll give it up to Penny Schwab or the it like the way Liberty's pushing up look all their defenders even inside the 35 I'll try to control it went off of Liberty and out so it'll be warrior ball Kazmir couldn't quite handle it down there inside good look at a few of the Lancers right there there's number six Kiara Casimir just came into the game there's dutiful walk number five Jennifer Snider number two in the Lancers really putting pressure on here is Tessa Morris again Oh couldn't handle the ball ran by it a little bit but she's still whacking and hacking at it as they like to say that's one of those fifty 50s Liberty couldn't come up with but well they're just intercepting so many passes and there's a stick violation against Liberty well it looked like a pretty good play from up here Tessa Morris had that on her forehand but the refs blew the whistle banishment now trying to get by Toller they'll get the call and Toller it's that one out of bounds just backing getting some more help defensively earning yourself some time with 250 left here in the first half sometimes that's all you can do with it just get that ball out of play let your defense reset and again the Warriors coming back trying to get behind the Lance or defense and they're gonna call obstruction no they call obstruction against the Lancers and it'll be a rapaho warrior ball this one's pushed forward good job by McCullough to cut that one off again it comes inside Schwab tries to send it out she does so to Morris Morris hits it up not close to Kazmir intercepted by the Warriors and again amber winter struck with the free hit gets it to Darby Sherrod on the side try to get back to winter strip Schwab is their winner strim really trying to play that ball now it's deep inside and a whistle and a veal answer ball we got a corner coming up actually they're gonna call obstruction here on on Liberty and that was a pretty good call I don't know which of the players they got it on but one of the white jerseys just turned and just created a screen right in front of the goaltender so the third corner of the game coming up for a rapaho the last time they had one they scored a goal on and we'll see if Liberty can get out and and do a little better job of defending this one amber Winter strum will insert the ball and here comes Arapaho fan Schmidt sends it inside kicked out by edge bourgeois they're trying to play it goes across the in line it'll be Liberty ball good defense there by the Lancers really good job you have four players in the cage they all came running out they all picked up their man the ball came in on the goalie let your goalie kicked that one out of play and it ends up going back the other way for the Lancers and now I call against Liberty Arapaho has it they'll send it up into the field Kylie small plate that one and it comes back to McCulloch McCulloch sends it forward to do to Vadhu Dubois sending it even further forward and they're chasing it the ball towards Crowder Olivia Ruth and there we go the first corner for the Lancers and it all started with that long pass by McKenzie doodle-oo what a great job she had it on her floor hand-turned sends it all the way down in and liberty will get a corner there first corner of the game now we're under 30 seconds left but the half cannot end on a corner so if it's a live corner even if the clock runs out they will continue playing until that play is over there's the insert bourgeois takes it gets it to Schwab Schwab sends it low and it goes in no goal the officials saying no goal a touched the back the heel of a stick down low no goal for the Lancers oh what a bad break there for Liberty it was a great shot that came in by penny Schwab take a look at his Schwab takes the shot Mackenzie do Dubois got the touch Olivia Ruth down there as well and you see the official right away said oh it touched the back of the stick and that's the way the first half is going to end Arapahoe holds a one to nothing lead on the Liberty Lancers that's a half time we'll be back with more high school field hockey on 20 TV you welcome back inside district 20 stadium Brian German alongside Dave Toller the Arapaho warriors have a 1 to nothing lead over the Liberty Lancers in high school field hockey and as we went to the half the Lancers had their best chance penny Schwab hits the ball and the official you see him right there make the call he says no goal and he said that it went off the back of a lancer stick that's Crowder laying in the goal crease there but a very questionable call I don't see that ball really hitting anything there possibly due to voix down low well and even if it did it hits the right side of the stick it looked good from here but the official blew that one dead and disallowed that goal so a rapaho still leads 1-0 and we're in action here in the second half this time Lancers moving from left to right and they'll try and keep the pressure on that warrior defense again Morse gets the ball penny Schwab can't handle it he went off the foot of a rapaho and they'll get a free hit here and that'll be Tessa Morse lining up for it horse back - Schwab Schwab who had that nice shot - in the half there this one's taken away by the Warriors they come back up the other side Megan England who has the only goal in this game with all the answers keep the pressure on good play there by Malik ibises Liberty's defense is pushing way up typists just to the ground laid that stick down blocked it and send it back for liberty now they move it ahead look at this this ball on the run for a rapaho is Piper Rundell but she couldn't run that one down and soak Ibis will put it back into play for the Lancers Liberty had six shots on goal in that first half Arapaho had three the Warriors had three corners two liberties one and on one of those corners Arapaho got their only goal of this game Tessa Moore stood a great job pushing it forward here now cuts back she's gonna lift that one down low gets by Crowder but just outside the goal a nice tried a great move there by Tessa Moore she brought it all the way up the field really was take a look at do de voir right here she just wanted to get a piece of that and she knew it she slams her fist down she was in a great position if she gets any piece of that and tips it it can go and had that ball gone in clean it wouldn't a counter it was outside the arc so one of the Lancers needed to get a touch on it doodle-oo was right there in a good spot just couldn't make contact Jennifer Schneider gets called this time for using the back of her stick warriors come back and now trying to move ahead Kapus comes back defensively unable to stop that ball moving ahead Arapahoe now trying to get something going boo schwa plays it dude of Y now moving in ahead and great job I tabeling tabeling had ruth ahead and there's a good call tabling will keep it alive she'll come inside Olivia Ruth is right there and another call this time it'll be another corner for the Liberty Lancers what great teamwork from Liberty that's exactly what this coaching staff Jessie no Kowski that's exactly what they want to see pass pass pass get it in the circle yet draw foul now we'll see if the Lancers can capitalize inserting here will be Jennifer Snyder Snyder lots to choose from they'll come out the bourgeois bourgeois stops it's a - wobb Schwab tries to get it inside and a call is made and the Warriors take the ball well I know those are opportunities you can't let those get away you'd like you'd like to get a little bit more activity in front of Crowder in front of that a wrap a hole goal and right away a foul called on Liberty and that goes the other way but another foul here on the Warriors and comes right back compass tries to play it inside was looking for tasty Davis again the Lancers keeping the pressure on Tessa Morris has been really impressive today she's been all over the ball and here we go again with a corner another call is made and the Lancers will get another chance at it looks like Schneider's coming out this time and Liberty's gonna talk about the attack here so typically on these plays it's the players that get together they do have some set plays that they want to call that the players can do that on their own they make the call in the field and we'll see what they do here's the insert bouche wasps sends it back the other side this time Morse sending it inside they're in there Olivia Ruth is right there there's dutiful wah still playing it and they're gonna call it back he'll hit for the Lancers a little bit more activity off of that one that was a nice play another one that's gonna be a violation we weren't sure which way it was gonna go I was I was with you Brian I thought it was going back the other way but Liberty gets another corner Schneider will take it booyah stop this time she'll send it down low Ruth is there and again another corner for the Lancers this kind of a situation that happened in the first half where Arapahoe got the goal they had two straight corners the third straight one for the Lancers we'll see if they can't capitalize yep just got to keep keep at it keep at it keep it in and as many chances as you can it moved over now this time they send it well outside booyah sends it down low there's a great opportunity but it goes up and out off of Jennifer Schneider that's a set play that Liberty will run we'll take a look at it here comes booze wall with the drive comes right off the goalie and the inserter is Schneider who just steps in for a rebound and that redirect it looked like it might have went up and over the top or just wide of the cage there's a good look at the freshman Jennifer Schneider who just had a good look at the cajon eve Murray for the Warriors really made a great play getting a stick on that ball and Schneider was trying to send it home sunanda Lancers get it back again Schwab to Kapus back to Schwab Schwab will send it down low looking for a player dude of wise there and again the warrior defense is right there to stop any Lancer opportunities and they get the call on the ball back well you got a feel that Liberty keeps getting these opportunities these chances down low eventually they're gonna get something to go in you just have to keep keep going at it sometimes you got to get it a little lucky down there - Schneider sends it inside Duda for I can't handle that one no one's did warriors come back having a tough time handle it there is winter Strom back they come Schneider can't handle it good defense by Jennifer Schneider and arapaho still trying to move that ball forward rapaho did a great job in the first half and they're few opportunities they have they're the only team to get a goal so far today penny Schwab trying to play it back at a rapid right there this time it comes back bourgeois is there trying to dribble it and just keep possession there's a whistle and it'll lead Lancer ball did a really nice job of just running some time off and waiting for her defenders to get back behind her she was the last line of defense back there just eaten up a little time she ends up winning that ball and she sends the drive up the ball will go over to Arapahoe it went high off of Taylor sabato and that gives the ball back to the Warriors when a drive like that gets up that high gets up above the knee into the waste area they'll call it dangerous play and that's what they call there that's why the Warriors have the ball when you're strong got it back Lancers trying to play it ruth comes away with it and Schwab will play it for the Lancers they'll move it ahead due to fois couldn't quite handle that one out of bounds and over to the Warriors so winner Strom again will take it the junior for the Warriors nice stop by Penny Schwab and that's a dangerous play again we just saw one going the other way that ball on a drive that gets up that high they'll blow that one dead now pushed forward got a run on that ball with some speed on the outside look at Tessa Morris coming in JC Davis gets it back to Morse Morse it's been doing most of the damage for liberty on offense she gets that ball back right on the in line now pushes it out sends it inside look out Ruth's shock just off the side of the post and out and Wow look at Crowder the the goaltender for a rapaho she knows she missed that one there's a good look at it right there just a little spinorama in tight by Olivia Ruth and it goes wide but how about the speed of Tessa Morris on that ball that was sent down deep to an area let your teammates run to it boy can she run she she outran everybody to that ball got it in deep and led to a good scoring chance there for Olivia Ruth warriors now trying to get it out of there and can't do so this comes back with it doesn't get enough on the ball but due to why's there do devoirs relentless defensively trying to get that ball back for the Lancers and almost has it here does so but they're gonna call something against the Lancers yeah they call the push that time on on McKenzie dude of law and she'll get that call she's an ice hockey player so she's used to going in and throwing her body around and you can't do that in field hockey Schwab loses this one the Warriors come back coming down to the final 20 minutes of regulation time Schwab since that one out of bounds we talked about this Liberty team just in its third year of having the program it started in 2015 this is a team that last year they were the number one overall academic team in the state they had a team GPA over 4.0 this season they're right in that same area three point nine they're up for consideration for that academic all-state team so you've got some girls that devote a lot of time to this sport but they're getting it done in the classroom as well that's the awesome news if you don't know district 20 one of the best school districts in Colorado Springs how some of these student athletes the amount of time they devote to practice to weights to to watch and film and everything else and they can still go and carrying a 4.0 you don't get a whole lot better than that and that's over a team of about 26 players they have so they're they're getting it done in the classroom and you can't say that it's they're doing it because maybe their school is easy because all these ladies are all different schools right all six are represented on this one team look at Tessa Morris again the speed on the outside trying to steal that ball and she does get the call the Lancers will take it right there well the coaching staff loved that one the the girls on the bench cheering them on and that that's what they want to see here's a good look at at Tessa Morris one of the few times she's been still tonight yeah she's from our Academy High School sends it inside looking for do Dubois Ruth stops it she'll get it inside and just beyond the goal oh man Olivia Ruth with another shot that just just goes wide you got to believe if you keep throwing stuff to the net good things are gonna happen eventually but well Olivia Ruth has had a couple of good looks we'll see right in here again her back to the net sends it just wide had the goalie beat on the play got underneath her but goes out of bounds Savannah Crowder talked to some of her defenders after that one Schneider gets the call let me give it to Penny Schwab Schwab will play this one Snyder inside stopped in there by winter stroke and he'll hit by Schneider keeps her rapaho with the ball Benny Schwab steals the back taken right back away from her by sabato but here comes Kapus sending it in tell you wonderful answers getting on that left side look out for this lady Tessa Morris here she goes dribbling it up the field she could be inside the circle now turns and sends it and I believe it went off of and out of bounds it did it just came off of the stick and well what a nice job she did have you taught you don't want to dribble too much but she just passed it to herself just kept pushing it forward after got it down on the goal line honest he took that shot he just had so much spin it went out of bounds and now Kyler McCullough comes back in for Kaitlyn tabling McCullough from Pine Creek High School look out here comes the Warriors good job there by cactus to push that one stop that one Kaitlyn fan Schmidt was running right down the middle of the field for Arapaho that we are gonna get another corner for Arapaho right there well this is how rapaho splayed it's it's a little bit of a rope-a-dope it just seems like they're taking the best punches that Liberty has and then when they get a chance they get it in right away they get a corner and they will get their fourth corner of the game their first of this second half so KY pish Schwab Morse and of course bourgeois gonna play defensively on this one there comes the insert look out for the Warriors good job defensively stopping that ball and a good steal by Kapus she sends it forward looking for Schneider Schneider does a good job keeping that ball she's got some room to work with sending it forward for du Dubois but back to offensively for the Warriors and doing a good job there was Caitlyn Frenchman excuse me that was Abby Chalmers now again Lancers will have to go back and I'm sure that coach Ashley Loftus is loving this because when they when the Warriors have possession it's great cuz you have a one to nothing lead Lancers back on their heels right now I sit there by JC Davis Schwab has it she'll send it up the field looking for do Dubois and again off the foot or yours playing it forward there's Kapus another whistle that one got over the over the sidelines and typists was trying to play that she got the last poke in there that knocked it out of play so warriors will take possession they'll be just fine with this with a 1-0 lead approaching 15 minutes left in this one Taylor sabato sends it down low that's Lucy Fleming Fleming in sabato playing a little two-man game over there they get the call in another free hit you inside the calls we're gonna have another corner yeah there must have been an obstruction away from the ball we didn't see it we were watching the ball here on the near side the ball I don't believe was even in the arc but they called the corner coming up here for a rapaho Lancers played well defensively last time on this and for Arapaho that's Brook Tillman sending it in or a pehoe trying to get it going and a whistle and back to Liberty and a good stop by the Lancers it really was and I tell you what that that takes a lot of courage when you're running right at somebody with no padding on and they're swinging a stick at you Tessa Morris got in there broke that one up and Lancers had it but the Warriors will take control in the midfield if the Warriors are keeping the Lancers on their heels right now here in the second half Lancers down by a goal need to get something going push it forward Tessa Morse it sit on the side to McCulloch McCulloch tried to play it and there's a call and we'll go back to the Warriors when Liberty's been successful in this game gaming the ball if they've been jumping them defensively they've been putting pressure on the Warriors and that's why they get their steals and start to move the ball back to their side of the field and they've done it with those long passes and you saw over on the far side just too much dribbling by Liberty they just ran right in to traffic and sometimes and you can talk about it across all sports basketball football the way you beat a trap is don't try to beat the trap make the passes that go around if they lit a rapaho get in and trap them inside Olivia Ruth tries to get it again this ball is sent wide and out by McCullough Kylie McCullough who's from Pine Creek High School trying to get all the district 20 schools mentioned at least once the free hit by rapaho again tough defense as it went by Snyder the Warriors will keep it there's Tessa Morris coming back the other way she'll send this one to the center tasty Davis couldn't handle it take him back by Arapahoe there's bourgeois who's moved up further up the field she sends it up to Schwab Schwab with a nice play to keep control now to Schneider on the side she's naughty there's that to touch passing we were talking about earlier in the game with stopped it and then send it on to a teammate that was Ruth Nell Schwab has it and that's a tough pass terrorism's intercepted by Fleming and the Warriors will come back with the ball 1225 now left second half wrap up 1-nothing long as you're saying Brian number 24 Madeline booze was really pushed up to the midfield coach Jesse Noor Kowski changed up the formation a little bit they've moved bushwa who started out as the sinner D she's playing more mid right now Jordan Toller who was the left D has slid back to playing the center D spots a little rotation trying to get boost wash she's got a big hit she's got a great Drive and they're trying to move her a little bit closer up try to make use of that big shot she has Snyder trying to get the ball back here and does get the call so the Lancers now with a big hit by Kapus I just tries to stop that one here's bourgeois sends it forward taken away by foreigner Strom and back by bourgeois and a good job running into the ball there there's some McCullough who goes down and gets the call a little shove from behind by Arapaho and here come the Lancers Schwab sending it over to Morris Morris she's done this all night long dribbling down the side and gets the call good job offensively just keeping the pressure on the Warriors and more sets it up again this time on the outside of McCullough try to get it in your swab swab down-low shot Oh block there by Crowder and look at dude of hua working hard against Crowder down low just trying to get contact with the ball but Crowder makes the save we'll take a look at it right here penny Schwab getting that ball in there's a Livia Ruth with the first shot it's saved there's McKenzie dude while going to working I tell you what she's one of the smaller people on the field she doesn't back down from anybody she's in there she's digging trying to get anything to work and a corner coming up for the Lancers the corner Schneider gets it to pooja pooja back on the side this is Morse more sending it in Ruth can't get a handle on it and it goes back to the Warriors big stop there by Arapaho it really was good flurry bye-bye Liberty had a couple of chances ended up with a corner but I'll see if they can get a get a turnover here in the midfield so we come up to the 10-minute mark we played two-thirds of the second half 5/6 of the game in regulation at least the Lancers should get a goal we would go to a 10-minute overtime Golden Goal Warriors coming forward look at the Lancers back defensively nice job by McCullough back there I'll move it forward back they come again the Cape miss is back there with Toller and Schwab and they get it out to four Schwab bourgeois nice move turning on that ball and she sends it up the field look at it move that's the hit you were talking about the bourgeois can get to and here's do to walk Lancers quickly changed the field there with a big hit by bourgeois but there's a call that goes back to the Warriors up the side comes Lucy Fleming Fleming the sabato big hit here look out another player but you cannot handle it down on the inline Lexi Lyons and it goes out of bounds and will go over to Liberty and Liberty will take a timeout here 858 left in the second down 1-0 the Lancers will have the ball they'll have the free hit back in their own end and coach Jesse Nakao skete Erin brill her assistant she wants to bring him together and and let's set this up the Lancers have had some opportunities there's no doubt about that they've had some shots they just haven't gotten a whole lot of luck down low and these coaches you just got to keep swinging and get balls into the circle they've had five corners in this half they haven't capitalized they they just got to keep swinging at it and I saw Caitlin tabling took her jacket off looks like she's gonna come back into the game right there and your screen number 13 she was talking pretty animatedly to doodle-oo just trying to maybe keep her you know keep her mind up keep her in the game as a senior here playing her last game she's from do tuvo Mackenzie do Dubois 14 shots this year ten of them on goal she's got two goals in the one game winning goal against guess who Arapahoe the last time she played discovery Canyon is where she calls home but of course she's wearing the Liberty Lancer red and blue today but very interesting for for all of these players when they all come together you can see so many different leather jackets all from different schools you've got some pine creek you've got some Air Academy of course Liberty DCC one from TCA is Penny Schwab that that started with this program as a freshman as well there we talked about the two seniors there's eight juniors on this team that they were freshmen when this program started so you see this program progressing two wins two years ago two wins last season three wins this season and and you know you see as this program goes if all of those eight juniors can come back and stay with this program it's going in the right direction there's no doubt there's a good look at a couple of the Warriors for Arapaho amber winter Sturm we've called her name a lot tonight evelyn Hollenback is in the game number twenty-one there for a wrap a home and here you go let's see what the Lancers do koechner Kowski may have drawn up something here probably just definitely wants to keep the pressure on as borsch well it takes a big swing Schwab trying to regain the ball doesn't get it they give it to Arapaho she hit it with the heel again nice job by Schwab there defensively though to get that ball back sends it on the side Schneider can't handle it goes out of bounds and back over to Arapaho you know and some of that timeout could have very well been to give your girls of rest they've been running up and down for for 40 minutes you got the same girls out there for the final 10 min to push give him a little bit of a rest before they close this one out inside played by Bourjois again a heel hit bourgeois trying to change the field again stop there by the Warriors quick hit here up to Schwab Mike APIs Schwab again good job cutting that ball off and getting it to Schneider pretty sure pushing it forward to do - what do Devon in the middle of the field played forward by Davis Davis has Ruth running down the middle Ruth will stop it send it and it gets through looking inside a nice job by tabeling she had a shot inside and it goes wide well how quick they can flip the field when they make passes and they don't dribble Kaitlyn tabling three goals in that win it that's Smoky Hill again she's only played up but forward for about the last five or six games but she had a pretty good look right there and the Lancers with a free hit Schwab takes it comes on the side gets it to Schneider Snyder deed up and they were gonna give that one back to the Warriors this one's knocked out of bounds by Kapus the Warriors quickly moving it back up the field Lancer coaches said get back as winter storm takes the free hit Schwab trying to play it right there to keep us type us now and they're gonna call it obstruction and give it back to Arapaho so winter storm will have to run this one back well both of these teams have struggled to score goals this season so sometimes you get that early one and we'll see if a rapaho can make that one goal stand up off the heel there back the Lancers there's a ball forward to do de Foix nice stop running on as a Ruth and tabeling Ruth hits it right to tabeling tabling keeps it she'll dribble it forward play it inside the circle Ruth was there almost stopped by Davis and he Schwab is gonna run onto this one Schwab has Morris on the side tried to get it to her now more stops Tessa Morris keeping that ball and they'll get the free hit again she comes back outside of the 25-yard line let's see if the Lancers can get something going here as we're inside six minutes winter storm plays it right on the sidelines great job over there by fan Schmitt to keep that ball alive and then gets the call back to Liberty moving up at the ball goes back to the Warriors again I sit there by Bourjois it's gonna come inside Crowder's there look at dutiful ah trying to play it and what a great job there by McKenzie do two voix trying to get to that ball but Crowder kept it from going it well how about that hustle trying to play it and maybe even trying to draw a foul on the goalie but boy McKenzie do to Vlad great hustle doing everything she can to keep that ball in play five minutes now to play for the Lancers in need to get that equalizer Schneider trying to play it forward and you could see the Warriors have really packed it in back defensively now just their three forwards playing up and winter strum has been taking just about every free hit she seems to have the biggest Club for the Warriors and as I say that she doesn't take this one they try to get it to winners from here and she sends it this time Kapus playing that ball in midair taken away good job there by Lexi Lyons and there's England who has the only goal of this game playing itself in the middle of an schmidt who has the assist on that goal and here's winter strim sending it it's deep and it goes out of bounds the jaw by Haley edge just watching that one go and the Lancers will take possession of the ball but inside four minutes now Liberty hustling as fast as they can Nellie you see with the team with the lead Arapahoe taking a little bit of time when they had their free hits liberties to get going bourgeois sends it up Davis trying to play it and a good job like guess who on the outside Tessa Morse dribbles it up all the way up the flank warriors surrounding her and she keeps possession of that ball you get the foul called and Tessa Morris will take the free hit sending it down low for tabling Caitlin can't quite get it but Tessa more steps in front again and another foul and Lancers keep it going at this time it's a football and it comes out to the Warriors when Madeline boos wall was in a great spot right there to spin and send a shot on net and instead that ball got in on her foot tabling plants off here comes back out to Morris Morris tried to go back to tabling with it she'll have to pick it up and come towards midfield penny Schwab now turns it inside and you can just see the Warriors just playing all those passing lanes and now a quick play forward bourgeois running back and here comes Arapaho looking for a second goal of game that's England and a good job by Bourjois but they're gonna call a corner wow what a great job by England is she broke free for Arapaho and earns a corner let's take a look at it right there Madeline bushwalk getting back in and she had to try to do something you don't want to get a break away in on your goalie but when you're trailing 1-0 and you push everybody up across the midfield even inside of the 40 sometimes you get beat with one deep and that's what happened here Arapaho will get a corner out of this junior amber Wennerstrom will take this on the insert Warriors couldn't quite stop the ball good job by penny Schwab come out of there warriors trying to keep playing it that skype is trying to play good defense inside war you're still keeping the heat on winter strim right there and a goal and arapaho makes it to to nothing as the Warriors just kept getting their sticks on that ball and I believe it may have been England again for his second goal of the game yeah let's take a look at it here and see that's England 14 from three so England gets the goal Lexi Lyons gets the assist on the play and arapaho goes up 2-0 looking for their first win ever over Liberty the Lancers of won their first three meetings Lancers beat the Warriors earlier this season 1-0 up in Denver but right now wrap a hole with 1:40 left in this one up to zero it's pretty tough to come from two goals down here but we could see the Lancers have been quick on offense today we'll see if they can't come up with something there's a free ball move it down tessa morse couldn't handle that one but they will get again the free hit there's Tessa Morse looks over the offense gets to move it ahead in another five yards she'll look send it inside doodle-oo was down there looking but another foul inside against Liberty and the Warriors will get the ball and they will take their time with this one Tessa Morris has been all over the place for the Lancers and she comes up with it on the outside dribbling she does a great job and here comes the ball inside doodle-oo trying to get control of it she's right there with it and another foul called against the Lancers well it seems like every time there's a ball in the circle there's a battle for it that call goes against the Lancers and that's that's tough when you're trying to come from behind certainly is Lancers had a goal disallowed at the end of the first half and now are down two to nothing two Arapahos we come to the final 20 seconds Benny Schwab trying to run onto that ball as the Lancers drastically trying to gain control but Arapaho gets the free hit 10 seconds and counting now when a Sherm's furnace send this one stopped inside by the Lancers 2-1 and that will do it with the final hit for Arapaho and the Warriors rushed the field they are going after their goaltender Savannah Crowder and a big win and the shutout for Arapaho as they beat Liberty as you mentioned for the very first time yeah and a tough one here on senior night for this Liberty team again a team that's played very well the second half of the season they've had some good games down the stretch their two seniors Mackenzie du de Foix Madeleine boo ha playing their final home game and you know they wanted a better result out of this one they certainly had their chances as the game went on but credit Arapahoe when they had their opportunities they cashed in for the 2-0 win the warriors moved to 4 9 and 2 on the season the Lancers closed out at 310 and 2 but as you mentioned 3 wins their best season so far in their 3 years of this program and koechner Kowski doing a great job yeah it really is and really trying to build a program from the grassroots level as well these girls like we said they've never played before they're learning the skills of the game they're improving as they go along but this this one's gonna sting um This Is It this is one that that they thought they could get this is one they probably should have got but they didn't get any bounces and arapaho did tonight shout out to our crew tonight Rob Parrish Tim Sarah Torrey Mike Beier him on the cameras Adam Drake running the show and a Parker doing the replay machine for my partner Dave Toller I'm Brian German we hope you enjoyed watching this 20 TV program that'll do it from district 20 Stadium the Arapaho warriors win it to new nothing we'll see you next time on 20 TV you

[Music] yeah [Music] I'll hand it off to Sean all rise and join us for the pledge okay to begin this evening we will turn it over to Colette Sturm chair of the Board of Education Thank You Colette good evening everyone and welcome to the new school building project presentation for Boards of Finance and selectmen we're gonna have a presentation on the proposal following which we will be opening up for Q&A for our boards of Finance and selectmen after it please know that everyone here we're gonna be opening the floor up for input and questions thank you all for attending and I want to do clarify for a moment why we're all here why we need a pre-k through five quite simply center school and huckleberry are aging facilities which will require extensive and costly repair to remain functional all building systems are at or past the end of their expected useful life the schools are not energy efficient and there are safety issues in terms of accessibility and emergency access since these schools were built eighty and fifty seven years ago respectively school use requirements have significantly changed with the changing dynamics of Education as a consequence our elementary schools face some significant space limitations using either inadequate spaces are those designed with a far different use in order to house our fifth whiskey near were using portables which again have far outlived their expected useful life it will take upwards of $700,000 to replace these portables should we maintain our present grade distribution but by moving 5th grade to a pre-k through five school we right sighs whiskey near for the three grades it's designed to educate and more importantly we put all of our elementary students together to provide for the coherence and continuity of instruction in a pre-k through five school with modern amenities modern safety features flexible learning areas all designed to enhance our children's elementary school experience while we avoid the inevitable deterioration of our older elementary schools so with that I would like to present Jeff Lozinski from Tecton who will be going in greater detail with our building proposal thank you Jeff [Applause] thank you I'm gonna give a brief presentation I'm not sure if we want to give some time to turn around okay thank you so again thank you my name is Jeff was in ski I'm principal at Tecton architects our team has been working on this project for the past year or so and this presentation really is a brief summary of the process that we went through more a focus on the the preferred option that was selected by the committee and then a summary of the the costs and what the design could possibly be so before I get started just some housekeeping if there are some questions there's a new email created and it's shown here so please you can obviously ask your questions tonight but also if you have any additional questions you can send them in to that email address so the goals of the project and I'm gonna go fairly quickly through it the process started in 2015 or a committee was formed to study the longevity of all of the schools in Brookfield the there was a component the existing conditions analysis of each school that we've completed studying all the different various systems site building for each school we came up with recommendations for capital improvements and upgrades for each school as it relates to the existing conditions we also held numerous input sessions with educators relative to the educational needs and the programming aspects of each school we reviewed and updated the demographic projections the enrollment projections developed a series of options studied with a committee that was dedicated for the last pass you're going over each of the pros and cons of each 12 in total I'm work over all all 12 and we also held a couple public forums one on the existing condition one on some of the proposed options and then several public committee meetings and then various different presentations to Ward boards and then the committee and the Board of Ed unanimously selected option C prime which I'll go over in a little bit more detail we've already heard about the aged average age of all four buildings sixty years old and the average age of the additions is 17 no building has ever been fully renovated or modernized since it was built so again summarizing the problem aging buildings they obviously require more maintenance an efficient educational environment very difficult to adapt and modify the existing layout to meet the current educational needs you heard 5th grade's at the middle school now there was some surveys completed where there was a strong guidance to bring it back to the elementary gable elementary kid grade levels with that you're still using the portables at whisk and air and then as you heard building systems or either add or pass room useful life and then with that is the high energy consumption at each building so part of the options that were studied we also looked at a variety in fact 60-plus Town on properties to see if there was any capacity for for a new school on any of those spaces all of them nearly all of them were inadequate because of various different sizes wetlands but also all dedicated open space as well so again I'm not going to go over all the options that we studied but we studied it from a student population and it's great structure perspective and this this graphic illustrates that we had ten and then the committee kind of focused it down for the second public forum to four and those that attended we relabeled those a b c and d and ultimately with the feedback that we heard from that public forum and the various different building committee meetings that we had we finalized on basically option c or c prime it's a minor adjustment to option c so in summary it's three schools in total phase one is a new pre pre-k to five at the huckleberry hill elementary school site the the keys to that building are we're gonna house an early childhood learning center so you'll see in the and the concept plans how that can be separated from the rest of the school and the creation of a 5th grade Academy which was important for that transition year then you would demo with the existing huckleberry Hill Elementary School and then repurpose Center elementary so that's phase one phase two after ten plus years after down the road whis Kinnear couldn't either look at a renovate as new or targeted renovations again we have capital improvements projected out ten ten years out that shows some needed repairs but phase two would come ten plus years out in addition same thing at the high school so why was it selected these are really encapsulating some long conversations about why what's important to each option and unanimously this bullet it was the most important piece and discussed at length the least disruption to the students it's inherently safe for not only during construction but at the completion as far as the location in the building and the opportunity to meet all of the current school safety infrastructure guidelines it obviously improves the learning environment solves and this is a big bullet and they should be bolder but it really resolves pre-k to 8 nearly 3/4 of the student population and one in one swing pre-k to five and then it writes sizes that whisk in their middle school brings it back to two six to eight halfs the construction time when compared to renovate as new looking at eighteen months or so more predictable costs you can control typically control costs better when it's a new building less surprises and then it preserves and improved improves the athletic fields and you'll see that in some of the concept plans that I'll run through real quick so this is what the building could look like okay this isn't what we're saying the design would be but for those that are familiar with the site it would be back past this the existing school back up on the hills the property goes for quite quite a ways up the hill and the keys to the concept or to the design or to this school the the soul to the school is that you would have a component for early childhood education pre-k through one with its own separate entrance its own separate drop-off so that it is is isolated successfully from the rest of the school you would have a shared core space which the components are the cafeteria is the gyms the media centers that you know it's leveraging that shared use of those common spaces between the pre-k through one and through to five greats to the five would could be located up kind of towards the the rear of the building as you know if you're familiar with the site it kind of steps up towards the back so it's about it's a two-story building as it steps that along the hillside protected outdoor space using utilizing courtyards for the various different grade levels was an important key feature and then obviously schools are are as Exhibit A here is the they're used by the community and to place the functions that you get utilized most by the community towards the front so they're easily separated from the rest of the building is a key key piece and then they also you know more detail to that is locker showers and the use of a potential of an emergency generator for as for a shelter for some of these events that seemingly happen more frequently so the keys to the concept this is the site plan on the right side Candlewood Lake Road just to give you orientation the existing school is located here in that light kind of beige color this is the proposed conceptual site plan now the orange block that you see on the left side is the new school pre-k to 5 the gray in the middle is the parking around 250 spaces adequate ratios to support that size school and then you'll see some new fields laid out towards the front portion of the site the keys concepts are as I mentioned earlier separate entry and drop-off the creation in the Early Learning Center shared spaces that 5th grade academy protective courtyards establishing neighborhoods and I think that's key and is particularly in this size school and this these grade levels so you can see and just diagrammatically how you could potentially separate post and traffic or or parents there's good distance between the entries for separation for the grade levels these are smaller key plans showing conceptual floor plans again what the building could look like and you can see from right to left how the building you know on the first floor kind of Nestle's its site itself into the hillside this this piece is the portion that would be pushed against the hillside the second floor is a full floor and then the third floor kind of sets up in the back so at no portion is it prettier than a two-story so we're we want to be sensitive to the scale of the overall building there you can see in planwise there the separation there early childhood the shared core spaces in the blue and then the fifth grade academy some other pieces you can see again on the plan of the protected outdoor space as I mentioned previously and the key one of the other keys is the establishment of the neighborhood so at no one point point does a student in a grade level have to pass through another's neighborhood to get to a common core space and that's very important considering the age groups and the use of the combined use of these this building so a very simple diagrammatic layout I'm always thinking about the future whether or not it's expanding the building or modifying the building to to accommodate that bubble potential bubble class coming through or the ability to add to portions or ends of the building to accommodate either a change in program or unexpected population increase so we did think about that as well and then as I mentioned the transitions between the grade levels was a topic that was discussed at length and you can see these neighborhoods as they you can see they create these pods which are nice neighborhoods are homes for for those great levels to to live in so the numbers how do we get them this for those that have attended the previous presentations this is consistent format from those presentations so I'll run through it fairly quickly the projected enrollment for each grade levels here this column the column in the middle is the allowable square footage by the state so you take the number of students times the allowable square footage you get a bunch of numbers by grade level ends up being about 138 thousand square feet so the existing building for a frame of reference is about 68,000 so it's about double that size the cost so you then take the cut of the site improvements so we're modifying about 16 and a half acres there's about 250 spaces the new building you would take times and this is key here I won't go into the great detail at this point but the 415 the $450 per square foot is it's not you know the high end it's not low end it's it's right in the middle of the historical averages for new buildings of this the size this vintage there's this grade level which is important so it's not gonna be on the low end where you're gonna have to start rented modifying and on the maintenance becomes a nightmare in five or ten years it sits right in the middle where it gives you a good solid 30 plus year building so you take all those costs 66 million there you see the number and then there's all these other soft costs so I like to explain it you take the building you turn it upside down you shake it everything that comes out is really soft cost so it's all the furniture the computers the designers the civil engineers all of that stuff so it's the numbers that you see on the right side just to keep a frame of reference our turnkey are all all in costs the difference between the 78 and the 63 is this is the total project cost this is the cost the 63 is the cost to Brookfield after of the reimbursement by the state so all those numbers are kind of summarized down here the state reimbursement right now could change but right now it's at 22.5 for new buildings for Brookfield and then there's some ineligible costs related to their various different components of the building that we want it to project so you know what is what are what is a 21st century learning environment look like so obviously you've seen a lot of these in Connecticut and throughout New England as as communities renovate and build new outdoor space is you know taking every opportunity to to use not only the building but the site to educate students there's a lot with a lot of studies and findings relative to the introduction of natural daylight into the into the space collaboration that ways of teaching the methods of teaching require flexibility collaborative space social space so you can see these these kinds of techniques utilize in a lot of today's educational environments and then of course it doesn't always have to be you know flashy spaces it also relates to the furniture as well so do you have to keep that in mind is it provides the opportunity for student centered learning project-based learning and personalization so it really hits all the marks at times we were asked in many when we're comparing different options throughout this process comparing new to renovate is new and and it's an important comparison obviously when you're when you're talking about the order magnitude of projects like these and on the left side is a summary of Avenue and on the right side is renovate as new so the numbers the student population would remain the same the built total building area would remain the same parking would remain the same the renovated site area would be increased depending on because the new building you're going further back and then obviously you would have four new you would have a demolition of existing time frame something to keep in mind here it's about 16 to eighteen months four new 32-36 four renovate is new so it's three years potentially four renovate is new so so those came into play and I and I know is just a bullet about disruption to students but that's a pretty substantial one to consider the cost summary the biggest difference is that you would notice is that the reimbursement for new is twenty two point five renovate is new is thirty two point five okay so you're getting a little bit more back from the state and then all the other comparisons that we mentioned earlier about the pros and cons and why new versus renovators now we can get into the baton to into the QA at this point I'd like to turn it over to Marshall hi for those of you that I haven't met I'm Marcia Marion I'm your new finance director I spent 35 years working as a audit partner specializing in government's auditing consulting and and accounting I've done this a number of times and there's two phases as far as the finances goes one is the incremental cost what is the extra cost for you on this project and then the second is how does that fit into the project as a whole so tonight we're going to go through the incremental cost and then we're working on a 10-year projection for the boards so they can see well this is the incremental cost and and you know this is how it would fit in all together the incremental cost that there were four factors that we included in our calculations one obviously is paying sixty three million dollars that and the debt service on sixty three million dollars we came up with four different options on the debt service were tried to be conservative at every step that we have a 20-year option and a 30-year option either one would be fiscally responsible in that the life of the building apparently in Brookfield might be eighty year that none but it's certainly longer than 20 years or 30 years so we looked at both the 20 year option and a 30 year option you've never had a 20 30 year option before and that's because it's new for the state of Connecticut and then we looked at two different formats structures of the of the debt one is a level principle you take the 63 million you divide it by 20 and you add interest to it so that's going to have a high beginning balance and go lower as the interest goes down but the principal stays flat and the other option is a level debt payment that's like most of us have on our mortgages where in the beginning there's a lot of interest so there's a little principal and they level off it's the same payment every year it's a little bit lower but it stays flat for the for the life for both of these we got the estimates of the interest rates from our advisors are um from financial advisers that we use for these things hilltop advisors and they estimated when we go to do the interest it'll be about five percent we included six percent in here just because we we want to be conservative on every number that we give you the second one is there's some costs that you're going to save by not having the two schools that one as I understand it has electric heat it's very expensive but between the architect and looking at the the energy costs and that the school looking at operational costs it looked like there was going to be about the savings of at least four hundred and fifty thousand dollars a year that one of the things that they talked about that I didn't even think about was busing that you don't busing to two different schools but that is four hundred and fifty thousand that's what the the Board of Education would save but the town's not going to save 450,000 because your tax dollars still have to pay to heat that dot that building and to keep normal maintenance on it so we took their four hundred and fifty thousand dollars and the estimate for for maintenance of keeping the heat on and things were thirty thousand to be safe we said let's call it fifty thousand so we're estimating that you're going to save fifty thousand dollars a year on the operating costs the third thing that comes into play is right now you're doing a lot of capital work on those those buildings that and a lot still needs to be done every year going forward so we have a ten year capital plan that we again that the architect helped us with Jeff that was just speaking helped us with a ten-year operating of what would need to be done to those buildings and those grounds to keep them in the condition for a school it's not really fair to take that number and subtract it out because you know the total number because you know that your budget is not going to allow for you to do a hundred percent of the cost so what we did is there most of them are safety issues for the two schools we took the capital costs that need to be done in the next ten years and we assumed with budget constraints you're really going to stretch them out over 15 years that and you're not going to pay cash for them you're gonna have to take dead out for them so that was what we're subtracting out that if you didn't do this school you would have to pay these debt costs so that was the third big big figure when we took all those that's how we got to the to the costs of the school per year several years there's actually a savings where where it would reduce your taxes up front before you start the project when you first take out the money that you get a Premium for taking out debt that that's a check that comes to us when we take out debt because people want to buy municipal bonds it's about three percent of what we take out so that would be a small blip in the front where there's a savings and at the end of the project if we project if we finance this project over 20 years this debt that we're taking out on the capital improvements would have taken longer than 20 years to be paid off because it's not even coming into play for the first 50 for every year for the first 15 years and then from there we calculated an incremental mill rate in the and the cost for the average home that just so you get an idea of how that worked that the first column and I've got the details here they'll be up online as well that the first the the first column is the year-end because I can barely see it here I'm sure you can't see it there the second column is this is just one of the four debt possibilities this is the 30-year debt what that would be the cost savings that 400,000 we talked about is in the next column the debt service on the capital needs of the two schools or in the next two columns and that brought us to a net cost and we took that with it with the incremental mill rate we're using the value of one mill as it is in this year's budget we're assuming that that it's going to increase by one percent per year the the grand list that is lower than what you've projected in the few in the past than the other buildings you talked about a one and a half percent projection again we wanted to stay conservative so then we have the cost the average home is three hundred and forty thousand dollars in value which we've multiplied by seventy percent to get the taxes the so the here are the four different categories that of the fort types of payments the the data for that and again it'll be on the website and I've got some handouts today if this stuff excites you but here's the the meat of it that there's the four different categories that if we were to take and finance this over 20 years using a flat principle the the highest year would be the first year of debt service that's that blue line and it would cost the average homeowner a little less than six hundred dollars a year in taxes that that is about fifty dollars a month for those of us that pay with the escrow and it would go down from there the other scenarios where we're paying it over a longer period of time or lesser if we're doing a flat principle so you can see there's two lines that go down below zero that's the 220-year debt the debt would be paid off for this before what you would be paying off in debt and on improvements that that are going to have to be done if if we don't do this and then the two lines that extend out the red and the purple line that's if we had 30-year debt so that to me seems to be a very important numbers what would that happen what would how would that affect the homeowner for their taxes the second set of numbers that we're working on now is the is a 10-year projection that we're where does it look like the town's going to be in ten years that the Board of Finance of the Board of Selectmen can't make a decision just based on this they have to look at the the full picture that's thank you Jeff and Marsha for the presentation so I'd like to take some time just to recap the compelling reasons educationally and otherwise that prompted both a strategic Facilities Committee and the Board of Education to unanimously choose this new school proposal above all other alternatives educationally this new school proposal will allow for the development of the early childhood learning center which will house our pre-k through 1st graders with this our youngest students are going to be in a smaller more welcoming environment this is the draw of a small school like center school and we can recreate that in this new school proposal in addition the pre-k and kindergarten classrooms will be larger with bathrooms located within each classroom not only is this a clear safety advantage but it's less disruption to a school routine for our beginning students who are just learning school routines every single grade in the school will have its own neighborhood with the classroom situated around a gathering hall this will promote a sense of community within each grade and improve teacher collaboration among those grades as Jeff had mentioned no student will have to go through another grades neighborhood to reach the shared learning spaces this will vastly decrease disruption throughout the day and improve the monitoring of students during those transition times the new school proposal will also allow for the creation of stem and makerspaces and provide the flexibility to accommodate for presentations that happened throughout the day not only this but we will have specific learning areas for our children with special needs technology will be integrated throughout the school and there'll be a positive connection to the environment via outdoor spaces ceiling height lighting and acoustics and finally the arts will intentionally be provided for with proper classrooms cific for studio music and performing arts all of these educational advantages would be difficult if not impossible to fit into a renovate as new option if they could be incorporated into the renovation it would increase the cost considerably another reason the new school option was chosen was the consideration of construction factors it will it's estimated that the new school proposal would take approximately 18 months to build with minimal disruption to our students that's compared to the up to 3 years with the renovators new project with the renovation our students will be educated on the same site as construction and will for at least some time be housed in temporary portables so if you look at that three-year construction for renovation we're talking about an entire generation of huckleberry students that will live in a significant or live learn in a significantly impacted learning environment another outstanding advantage with this new building per plan is the elimination of potential health and security risks that arise during construction ensuring both the proper learning environment and the health and safety of both our students and staff becomes considerably more complicating and potentially more costly when dealing with the renovation time and money are not nearly as controlled when you look at the potential obstacles that may arise during a renovation some of these costs could be renting additional portables or perhaps even renting a temporary school should we find hazardous materials or concealed conditions during the renovation the new school project is far far superior to all other alternatives in terms of modern safety amenities the effective flow of bus and car traffic parent pick-up and drop-off clear sight lines and the integration of 21st century school design safety principles can be implemented throughout the entire site in addition there's going to be a protected exterior play courtyard for our pre hey through first graders as well as a secured enclosed outdoor gathering space for the entire school looking ahead to future needs the new school proposal allows for minimally disruptive additions should our population of the school greatly increase or universal pre-k is instituted flexible teaching spaces are additionally located near the neighborhoods that can transform to extra classrooms to accommodate for those bubble classes that we always know arise keeping in mind that any new building addition is not just a learning environment but an extension into the community careful attention was paid to the school fields with they renovate as new option the 60-foot baseball field is eliminated and cannot be replaced in addition we may lose extra field space depending upon the final layout with the new school proposal all three fields the 60-foot Knight the 60 and 90-foot baseball fields and the soccer field are reestablished in new locations on the school site the monies for that is built into the project budget as an additional community benefit the new school is planned to be used as a shelter for the west side of town having just experienced the macro burst were all familiar with how crucial local shelters are with this new school proposal a generator and Locker and shower facilities are there to support the use of the school as a shelter community voting is also considered in the entry designs of the gymnasium in terms of security and parking so all of these areas the shelter and the then the voting are located up front near the parking lot and can be locked off from the rest of the school last but certainly not least a new school project will yield annual savings in terms of energy efficiency consolidation of staff reduction of redundancies and a reduction in an capital costs I want to emphasize as Jeff had touched on that this new school project is not considered a champagne taste budget whatsoever the building was priced at midpoint definitely below luxury but yes above bare-bones because at that point building quality and longevity is affected all involved with this new school proposal firmly believe that this is the best option for our students and for our community so thank you at this time we'd like to entertain questions from our boards of Finance and selectman having kind of lived and breathed this for the last month and a half with everybody I don't have any questions at this time so why don't we start with Dan divorce sets and rundown having not lived and breathed this and had no prior information I unfortunately have no questions at this time either I honestly think it was a little bit improper to present tax numbers and individual specifics without having the Board of Finance on board selectmen to have the opportunity to challenge those a head of time so I don't have any questions at this time but the project of this magnitude does it hamstring us from doing other improvements and that we've been told are required for instance police radios we were told in the last budget cycle I may be the one before that hey these radios are coming up and they're required we push them out a year does this impact or would it impact those types of projects yes and no it impacts from a timing perspective and we have to look at the overall growth in our Grand list plus new development which brings in new revenue which allows us to do things like the police radios and possibly explain this ban the police station but I think we believe that overall when you see the final financials that we are not going to hamstring the town for the next 15 years I don't think we should do that we have we have going to have to get the police radios within probably the next five to six years and we don't have a choice on that one that's a safety issue we have to do it so the answer to that is I don't think so and once you see all the financials the entire buckboards the all the financials you'll be comfortable that we can do the things we need to do in a reasonable amount of time and at a reasonable cost and I do want to make it clear as to what tonight is and what tonight is not and was never meant to be tonight was a presentation of the project and estimates okay tonight is not for the board of Luckman or the Board of Finance to make a decision so I want that to be a hundred percent 102 percent clear my decisions are made tonight by either one of these boards what we have liked to have the information that was presented and everything behind it beforehand of course but with discussion with with Steve and Colette changes were being made right before this and it wasn't feasible to distribute accurate information before the meeting but because this is strictly informational and for us on the boards and new folks here tonight thank you for coming to get information as preliminary questions about it you know we will have future meetings on this I promise you and decisions will be made starting with the Board of Selectmen and if it gets to the Board of Finance then decisions and discussion will be made at that time and yeah I understand the disappointment not having the information but given the circumstance and given what this meeting was a understand why we don't have it questions I was also part of the process and the strategic steering committee so I've been fairly well informed over the past year so I actually don't have any questions at this point okay this is based on the estimate um what determines the 18 and a quarter percent soft cost that you guys included the 18 and a quarter is based on historical averages in one of the previous presentations I gave a sample breakdown of that we can certainly provide that to you with a list of all the different categories okay and then for flat principle versus flat payment that's the same fixed interest rate on those but it's a it's a it's a fixed there's no because it seems like with the flat principle it is a variable payment that the interest rates do change a little bit based on the market that right now the market that which is we double-checked on because it doesn't seem to make sense to logical sense that the longer the bonds go out the lower the interest rates to us it seemed to make sense that would be higher risk to have a fixed rate that long but that's not what the market is doing right now so they they do go down a little in the later years okay all right III like Dan to this is a big project I think we need to go forward with this as a town but we need to understand it better and and I think if we're going to take this seriously we should be prepared for each meeting and not come into these meetings without having the documents and to look at and to be I'll ask questions I think for the next one we need to be prepared and have this so we can make you better use of this time and better use for the people in the audience because we're just getting the presentations now it would have been nice to have these and hand them out to the audience so they could have taken their own notes in these papers and made sense of this I think if we're going to take this serious let's take it serious not being prepared that could be black and white that the information that black and white could be handed to us we could have had this prepared you don't go to a meeting unprepared without having the presentation and I'll reiterate with Dan I mean I understand what what Shawn's saying but this project means so much to this town and it's so important to this town it needs to be done for this town we need to come to these meetings and be prepared I would strongly disagree with you that we're not prepared we're trying to save the town money we made copies to this for each of the board members so that they have it and it's available you have it right now it's available on the town website and anybody can look at it and we'll print some copies up and have my office as somebody doesn't have a printer and you can come stop by my office or John barriles office and pick up a copy did the Board of Selectmen have anything or should have move on to hi sue Slater I was also on the steering committee so I'm very familiar with the building and all the thought that went into it the meetings that we had had the the reports that we had gotten back from the citizens here I would have to say thank you to everyone who did put this report together and I appreciate all the work that did I know tonight's intention was to hear what it was see where we are at this point say basically if we can afford this and I think that was the intention of tonight here's your numbers now the Board of Finance has to you know look at it and you know see if they agree with it what I really want to hear tonight are just everyone's questions Harry shaker I did have two questions one have you considered or is it going to be a consideration for solar on the roof not as part of this project but possibly down the road and my second question is is it a thought to include the pay facilities building for the high school and a new parking parking lot now I know that it would be in addition to the scope of what the work was going to be but those are two issues here at the high school that seem like it's just never gonna get done especially the facilities building it's a dangerous situation back there and it's also a real neat now if it's gonna be a different project fine I just didn't know if there was any possibility of incorporating in it Thank You Harry I'll turn the solar question over to Jeff in a second we put on the capital I'll plan that project in the back of the school for facility storage concession bathrooms etc but that was pushed out into the future in this past years capital planning so we do have that in the plans we're tightening up and going through for the 10 year capital plan for the next meeting for the consideration of the 14th I think you meet again as far as solar we will be looking at all sustainable strategies whether it be photovoltaic or geothermal variety different systems so that's typically looked at for every project that we do so the answer is yes my reason for bringing up the facilities is this is kind of like the gymnasium floor for the first 12 years we were going to try to do it the next year and it's something that I thought could possibly be incorporated it would be a minimal cost compared to the size of this and it's something that is absolutely necessary there's there's absolutely no facilities and our back feels with thousands of people using that and on a monthly basis so it's just just a thought thank you so with a question with the solar if we were to incorporate that are there additional rebates or benefits from the state that we would get by using anything I'm Derrick bride with consulting engineering services yes there would be other rebates that you could go after with the state and other utility incentives out there the problem with that is we would have to look at them along with the state sometimes they will take that money off the top of your reimbursement that you get so we work closely with the state if we were to be working on the project with you we would work closely with the state along with the utilities in the committee's to make sure you get the biggest bang for your buck on any of those projects I guess I do have a question and I also a request both with regards to the 10-year plan that's being worked on and to be presented I guess I would ask if considerations are being made in that 10 year plan for uses it in refurbishing costs for center school that'll be included in their details on some of the cost savings that you mentioned in terms of consolidation in terms of energy all that will be laid out in in detail people have asked you know the plan currently is to demo Huckleberry and repurpose center school we don't have a final decision on how we're going to reverse the center school but it's near and dear to a lot of people in town and I think we should do that community center sports activities there's a bunch of various things and trying to pick a number without knowing what you're going to use the building for it's very difficult but we do have the numbers in there to maintain the building as is not let it get any worse than it is but keep it in shape heat it do the regular maintenance we need to do and then we're gonna have to look at at some point what we want to do with that building and that's gonna be another whole conversation with the entire community in my opinion but I think you know there we have groups that come into Town Hall almost weekly asking for places to me and we have to turn them down because all of the town's facilities are completely booked and we really could use places for maybe Girl Scouts or Boy Scouts or you know various clubs to me so there are a lot of things I think we could do is Center school and we have to think about that very carefully because I do not want to sit in my personal opinion is I don't want to see that building go idle right we need to come up with a plan for it but I think coming up with that plan for it is beyond this or this groups purview collect could you or Jeff go into detail on how we came up with the size of the building was it based on enrollment projections what projections was is it the size of the town the size of the plot itself and how far were you looking in terms of those projections thank you Thank You Chuck this on can you hear okay so the numbers in the column that say projected enrollment starting with pre-kindergarten at 39 so what what the state requires is a projection at least out eight years and you take the highest enrollment in those eight years for that grade level so what that column represents from pre-k all the way to grade five is the projected enrollment um the enrollment projections were updated by Maloney McBroom over the summer and we utilize the highest projection in that eight-year period and that and then so you take those projections those students and the state square footage in that column the 116 is a square foot standard that the state allows per that grade level and it changes per grade level you multiply those numbers together and that gets you your your maximum allowed building area so that that's how you size the building and and so that gives you an overall mass of an overall size of a building and then the state has standards for pre-kindergarten kindergarten in various different classrooms and that's how you have to meet all the various different standards it was updated it was updated and interestingly tomorrow night at our Board of Ed meeting we're going to be getting the updated enrollment data for this October we get it every October just as a little preview for everyone last year we had a total enrollment of 26 36 and this year this October it's 26:48 so if you're looking at the projected enrollment for a pre-k through 5 school this year it would be at 1068 I have a question regarding to what Dan said on the cost savings how are we gonna guarantee capture of these savings I mean it's a number on a piece of paper now but how do we go forward and guarantee that we're gonna save a hundred thousand six hundred thousand dollars in one year on these estimates how do we capture that because we always say we gain savings we gain savings and gain savings but how do we mandate a capture of that savings and make these true numbers because right now it's a number and a piece of paper right we're estimating what savings in particular are you talking about and then I can address them so that's more Martius okay do something at home or say we're gonna save twenty dollars a month on our electric bill but it always seems to creep away from us how do we capture it I can talk I can talk to the savings on the growth of the savings and we've put a factor in there for cost-of-living adjustments we use the same factor in there that we have on our temporary or on our 10-year capital a 10-year projection in progress as far as the specific savings on what they are probably Colet or John can talk more about that on what makes up those savings there would be the savings would start in the year that you closed the two schools so I would say that that would be the easiest way to capture what the savings are to say here's what it was and in this budget let's say it's the year ending 2021 budget and then here's what it is in the year 2022 budget and then make sure that it's a at least that amount and you can see where those savings occur I would say that would be the best way to capture it but to really capture it in the bank correct that you could you could itemized it there and and show that it's that it's less I agree as far as the savings associated with the school itself Tecton Associates is very comfortable estimating the amount of energy savings that they will do it's conservatively estimated at 250,000 again though we backed off thirty thousand fifty thousand again to be conservative for maintaining center school the other two hundred thousand dollars is the consolidation of staff which would be determined based on the final layout and the busing savings and then just the the reduction of redundancies which we can further delineate for you as well dan so just to elaborate a little more on the energy savings so we were tasked with the calculating existing energy usage on your existing buildings along with the proposed new building given the energy inefficiencies of the both the elementary schools in calculating out the efficiencies of the new school we came up with around a 200 or 250 thousand dollar savings annually with the new new building so one of the things that surprised me in the presentation perhaps it was in some of the previous presentations I didn't go to all of them was the inclusion of the lockers and the showers in the generator which aren't necessarily educational items but more town needed items and I was wondering when that got added and if there we know what the cost of those particular pieces are to the project in isolation so I can talk briefly about the cost of generator the code requires us to have emergency standby systems and all our facilities so in order to have an ease of maintenance we generally put a generator within every building over the past decade or so we've been finding the cost of generators reducing drastically over the years so to upsize that generator to accommodate the extra square footage of the gymnasium some locker areas some extra heat and potentially the a warming kitchen or something like that you're only talking a couple hundred thousand dollars extra for that extra cost so it's something we've been putting in almost every school that we work on um it's kind of almost common practice now in the industry but it's it's a smart use of your money similar response to the locker facilities where you know we're not talking a full shower facility suite we're talking a few showers adjacent to existing changing rooms or locker rooms for that grade level so there's the capacity or inability to have that function in this school so when you say for that grade level are there gonna be multiple locker rooms or is there one locker room I'm in favor of that so yeah at this grade level you don't historically see you know shower facilities but to expand the changing slash locker areas to house two to three shower facilities is a minor incremental cost to the overall scheme okay yeah now we will take questions that will answer to the best of our ability if we can't anyone on the panel will obviously defer out to the experts there is a sign-up sheet next to treasurer John Lucas over there if everyone could then I will write their name and address down on that sheet but also announce it and we would like to keep each speaker to five minutes and the timer will start going as soon as you announce who you are while we're signing up you know I would like to thank everyone that is here and that is tuning in for being here and tuning in as the chair of the Board of Finance I'm excited about this project I'm excited at the possibility that the Board of Selectmen will pass it to the Board of Finance and we will have an opportunity to consider it and possibly bring it before everyone in town so thank you everybody and I hope everyone does have a chance to speak and I hope everyone does get out what they want to get out because this is a great time for everyone to give input and ask questions and get answers all right so why don't I start I'm Bob Beldon 7 red barn Lane and for truth in advertising I'm on the board of education so I've very familiar this and I'm not going to use anywhere close to my five five minutes I actually didn't hear something like that I think is important in the presentation I was wondering if somebody could talk to the board's and to the public about the schedule you know what is the time that when are we thinking we're gonna go to referendum how much time do these two boards have to deliberate on all of this and then once it's approved by the town what's the what you know what's the broad schedule after that so that's just one thing if we could spend a couple minutes on that okay so the schedule just to go over real quick the bow box and the bottom there is basically where we are right now fall 2018 a couple of lines that you need to be aware of if there's a referendum sometime in spring we targeted on the top March but at this is a preliminary schedule there's a deadline to submit the grant application and you didn't do need to have referendum support and for that showing financial support for the project that's June 30th 2019 so you submit it to the state there's seven or eight items that you need to submit you sit and wait until basically December I think it's 15th now middle of December where they come out with a priority list as all the projects that submitted grants they give you a list show you your ranking you're on the list and you're gonna get reimbursement or a modification thereto then that goes through committee and comes out typically the other side in the spring of state funding approval in the spring of 2020 and you really need that our recommendations you really need that commitment which is from the legislation saying that they they approve the total bond in total the project and then you can either start or go out to to bid depending on how you want to sequence the design and pre-construction phase but let's just say you're halfway through design at that point when you get that letter you put it out to bid in the fall of 2020 and you start building it you best-case scenario would open for the fall of 2022 it's a buying frame from a floor Kimberly Drive just a question to kind of reconcile from a previous presentation with regard to the scope and the cost the the option C which is I like that that's the best option I think it evolved with my thanks for everybody put their work into that but there is discussion of the the huckleberry and then also then we skinnier there was there was a discussion about upgrades to whiskey near but I think for what I understand you have here that's that's not part of this sixty submode that's ten years down the road or that was you really couldn't see that color on that presentation so just what's the what's the situation with whiskey near yeah and the second question is is there was discussion that there was a requirement for a second row second access wrote the huckleberry that would go across Errol Ella I think to Belden Hill and come out on Turkey Hill whatever that road is over there you did it was on the map he didn't discuss it I want to show if that if that's a requirement if the costs are associated with that in this sixty three million dollars if and with the town is that something possible you have to buy land we have access to that did I think that's sure so the answer to your first question about whiskey no you're absolutely correct we showed graphics similar to the detailed breakdown for each school assuming that the whiskey nur at some point in its life in the future ten plus years would be a renovate as new and those dollar costs were calculated the same way that I reviewed the the proposed pre-k to five this it that would be phase two that would be ten plus possibly fifteen maybe even twenty years out the systems in there and as you look at that capital improvement plan are a better vintage and better condition than some of the elementary schools and that's why this option was chosen so those numbers that I had presented were at the the original at the second public forum were really two to illustrate what a renovators new at whisking air would would be when that would do occur would be 10 plus 15 years down the road the second question you had is relative to is relative to to a secondary ingress egress and that is absolutely true as well regardless if you do this project or you keep huckleberry hill as is today it's our recommendation through our consultant team to provide a secondary access to the site it's not technically required it's it's a strong recommendation what you have going through the site and a very light filter as you can see kind of right through the middle of the site is a floodplain and you always want to have two ingress egress out on a site that has a floodplain so regardless if it's a new building or the existing we recommend that secondary ingress egress and the cost is built in to this project yes correct yes I wanted to reiterate though that the one area of work on whiskey near that is involved in this project is the destruction and removal of the portables because we want that to happen as absolutely soon as possible don't take Steve's time but in the town can a town talk about that Road is that is that something that's doable do we have to acquire properties is this I don't you know when you start you know doing that son okay yeah the town owns that property now that's an ABI site yes good evening Steven Harding 21 Brookfield meadows first I think this is an absolutely worthwhile investment for our town it's critical that we do this I went to these schools huckleberry over 20 years ago and to Collette's point what she was talking about some of the maintenance issues and safety issues that we have the schools we had the same exact issues over 20 years ago with these schools when I was in them and the last thing I'd want to see is my son going to the same as I talked over that I went to that's just not right so I think that the investment in this is absolutely critical and I really hope that the town was forward with it in regards to you know the deadlines as you know the state is very critical with with getting that December list out from das so as quick as you know once we have the numbers correctly and we feel comfortable moving forward the quicker we can get the timeline moving forward it's critical to getting on das his list with that said just one question Collette mentioned it in her comment and it was critical she kind of mentioned it as a tertiary issue but it's really important the field usage and the fact that we're gonna be putting back in the 60 foot diamond the 90-foot diamond in the soccer field because without that we would be left with really only 160 foot baseball diamond only 190 foot baseball diamond and that's hard having just to in town let alone just one so my question is kind of off of that and I know it's more of a secondary issue but what is the plan currently for when we do renovate and we're putting on the new school or in regards how is that going to impact the fields do we have an idea of what that's going to do yes so there'll be a temporary loss of the existing portion of the existing fields and so just a comment on the ball fields we're already working with our high school athletic director thank you Steve who's working with other athletic directors for use of the field as well as with Parks and Rec and we're working for temporary use during the 18 months of construction before the new fields will be re-established how we would set that up working with other communities working with other districts recently when New Milford what we say recently with their new school it's almost 20 years old now but when New Milford was going through renovations with their track and so forth they use the Brookfield track so this is something we in kind do with other districts in parks and recs do with other towns Winfield's go through renovations and things like that so we're already working on those plans again we're looking down the road about three years four years before we put a shovel in the ground anyway so it's not going to impact anybody immediately we've got a lot of planning to do still thank you enduring the conceptual design a site plan design we did work with Park and Rec to modify the layout of fields to accommodate their their needs with the different various different sizes of the ball fields Greg Dombrowski 28 Green Mill Drive I have a question regarding the energy savings in the calculation that you gave us did you assume heating oil as your fuel source we assumed the use of natural gas for the heating sources so we've been in contact with some of the utilities there's natural gas within the vicinity of the project and hopefully during the design phase we could work with them to bring it up to the facility perfect thank you I raised Stefan 11 old Woods Road a couple of comments just I would suggest I understand the frustrations of some of the board members but I think this is a huge project and take your time meet as many times as you need to this is a start it's got to start somewhere in terms of the three options that I you know that we have in front of us I think most of us agree on this but doing nothing is not an option so I don't see that as a real option renovating it as new for 53 million dollars versus building is new for 63 million dollars as a poor option so I think that leaves us the new bill that hopefully we'll all see it that way now getting this right is obviously really important to do the first time we go to referendum I just wanted to point out someone was talking about the 10-year wait on whiskey near but there would be an immediate impact because fifth grade wouldn't be there anymore which was good which would be why you could get rid of the portables that would change that we give opportunities right away and whisking here to make some programmatic changes because there would be a lot more space there with no 5th graders so that should be considered when we're talking about this project I think one of the things missing I shouldn't say missing that hasn't happened yet that is really important is succeeding to understand and get a better vision of what the educational experience would be like in the building for me part of them the most exciting piece of the presentation tonight was seeing those pictures of what the building may actually look like for the students when they're in there and I wonder if a professional educator dr.

right here the dancer annexation to 861 Stone School Road and Zoning for City Council approval to 251 West Liberty Street special exemption use in site plan for City Planning Commission approval three seven eight six and three eight zero two plat Road rezoning and area plan for City Council approval to one one five South State Street special exemption use for medical marijuana provisioning Center incidental to a medical marijuana processing center for Planning Commission approval and 309 North Ashleigh Street site plan for City Council approval so we will have a full agenda at our next meeting seeing that Commissioner Ackerman is here would you like to give us an update from City Council thank you only one update despite and the only one thing of immediate relevance for this body which is we voted in favor of approving the master deed agreement with course basis for the property at the library a lot it's the final of three agreements with course basis that builds the framework of our legal relationship with them moving forward of course there will be a referendum on the ballot in in November that deals with the library a lot property but I think you know despite this issue being left to the people better to have all of our eyes dotted and t's crossed before we reach that finish line thank you moving on to our regular business number ten first item before us is 70 tene Heather way annexation and zoning for city council approval we'll begin with the staff report thank you as mentioned this is the 715 heather way annexation and zoning it is a request to annex from Ann Arbor township and zone a property r1 a property is located at the southeast corner of Heather way and Gettys Avenue it is it is just shy of one acre and it contains a single-family home staff report mentions it was built in 1970 but it was actually built in just for the record for posterity it is proposed to be zoned r1 a it will be contiguous with a large area that's also zoned r1 a south of get easily staff is recommending approval thank you at this time we will open up a public hearing if anyone in the audience wishes to address the Planning Commission give me a step forward to the podium and address the Planning Commission for up to three minutes seeing no one I will close this public hearing and we will begin to or actually I will read the motion the Ann Arbor City Planning Commission hereby recommends that the mayor and city council approved the 715 either way annexation and r1 a single-family dwelling district zoning you have a commissioner who moved moved by Commissioner Mills seconded by Commissioner woods we will now begin discussion seeing no one all those in favor please say aye opposed it is approved thank you I think during my time as chair those the quickest we've ever voted on an item so thank you and thank you for the great staff report moving on to 1750 Plymouth Road special exemption use with site plan for City Planning Commission approval thank you as mentioned this is the 1750 Plymouth Road special exception use for a medical marijuana provisioning Center it is located the I'm in a shopping center that is just on the south side of Plymouth Road just west west of upland and Murfin this is shown here in the aerial photo it's also shown here on a Google map there's not a great street view for it hmm the petitioners are asking to occupy a about a 2,000 square foot space inside of this existing shopping center there's a fairly long motion with the findings that we have for special exception use approvals as well as we've has suggested some conditional some conditioned approval as is standard for special exception uses first condition is obtaining and maintaining a state and city license operating the business within three years we addressed occupancy to no more than two hundred and two thousand two hundred forty square feet which is the tenant space they have requested and we addressed the hours of operation as a condition this is a twelve thousand square foot shopping center there are 52 parking spaces available which is seven more than a current maximum permitted for a shopping center they can remain as is unless the center is entirely redeveloped the staff report goes through the special exception use standards those general standards as well as the specific standards for a provisioning center applicants have provided an operation statement a safety and security plan a description of odor control waste disposal and hours of operation staff has found that the request is consistent with the general special exception new standards as well as the specific standards for provisioning centers I will note that the staff report mentions that there is a still outstanding traffic review traffic review our traffic engineer has looked at the additional information so far to be frank she still has some additional concerns she is she is recommending conditional approval or just she is recommending approval but know that it is not an ideal traffic situation the traffic cues from the Murfin upland traffic light this might provide a little bit better right here is that traffic light the queue does back up and can back up past this shopping center entrance and the peak hours of a provisioning center coincide with the peak backup hours for this outbound Lane and it is there it is a concern but she is not recommending that she's just flagging that concern for you but staff is recommending approval because it does appear to meet the standard the general and specific standards for special exception uses can answer any additional questions and I believe the applicant is here as well thank you at this time we'll open up the public hearing to members of the audience wish to address the Planning Commission in regards to this petition I will close the public hearing and read the motion bear with me it's long the city the Ann Arbor City Planning Commission after hearing all interested persons and reviewing our all relevant information including an accompanying site plan finds the petition substantially meet the standards in Chapter 55 unified development code section 5.2 9.5 dot d special exemptions and section 5.1 6.3 G medical marijuana facility and therefore approves the 1750 Plymouth Road special exemption used for medical marijuana provisioning Center this approval is based on the following findings 1 the proposed use will be consistent with the C one local business district which provides for commercial retail uses as well as office and residential uses to the proposed use will not adversely Packt traffic pedestrian bike bicyclist circulation or road intersections based on the location plymouth road provides access to the site and the proposed use is consistent with other surrounding uses traffic impact 3 a site plan documenting the existing conditions of the site has been submitted as part of this application for through documentation through documentation submitted by the petitioner regarding waste disposal inventory tracking security and other methods of operation of the facility the provisioning center will be operated in the manner that will not have an adverse impact on the neighboring properties or area and will not have detrimental impact on net on natural features the special exemption use approval is based on the following conditions 1 the petitioner obtaining and maintaining both the state of michigan medical marijuana license and a city of Ann Arbor medical marijuana permit and providing documentation to the planning services within a 3 years of the city planning approval of this petition the petitioner I'm sorry to the petitioner operating a medical marijuana business at this address within three years of the City Planning Commission approval date of this petition 3 the special exemption used may occupy no more than two thousand two hundred forty square feet of the development at this site for the special exemption use may only be open for business between 11:00 a.m.
